Shill for a kleptocratic despot: the role Tucker Carlson was born to play. Now we need to figure out how to send him to Russia. Permanently.

So Tucker’s on TV, being shown in Russia, repeating the Russian propaganda that Ukraine has chemical and biological weapons labs, which is being used as justification for the invasion and suspected to be cover for Russia using chemical weapons on civilians in the future. (i.e. the Russians claiming, again, “It wasn’t our weapons, it must have been theirs!”) So Tucker is actively making himself a participant in war crimes. Fucker should be in jail. Even “Lord Haw-Haw” wasn’t operating from a British broadcaster…

Hey, just because it’s blood-soaked Russkie dollars doesn’t mean they don’t spend.

Christ. When is the FCC going to wake up and bring back Fairness Doctrine? Having a mandated rebuttal to this shit would help a lot. I keep wishing The Biden administration would get on that; despite all the likely hypocritical moaning about a “nanny state.”
US democracy is being attacked by likely foreign-backed stooges like FTucker.

I don’t know what the answer is, but I don’t think this is it. Much of the problem with our media, I think, stems from already voluntarily treating both sides of an “issue” with equal weight, regardless of the reality or validity of the opposing point of view.

Nobody on that channel says anything without the implicit support of that channel’s owner. So how much aid and comfort does Rupert Murdoch have to give to the Russian state before this counts as treasonous.

Well, they’re not spending so well right now, but ultimately Tucker does this not for money but for love (of fascism).

Huh? Fux News (which is where Fucker Carlson lives) does nothing with the other side but caricature, ridicule and denounce it.

But they have those experts on, presenting that view, don’t they? Would that not satisfy the fairness doctrine? Honest question.
Meanwhile, CNN, ABC, NBC, CBS, even PBS and NPR have republican and democratic talking heads to cover both sides of each non-issue. Mandating that each side of each manufactured controversy get equal time seems like compulsory bothsidesism.
I’d be happy to be wrong, but I don’t see a return of the fairness doctrine changing much.
It’s beginning to sound a lot like treason,
Every show I watch,
A Kremlin apologist,
As smart as an anal cyst,
That’s our Tucker Carl—son,
Oh, it’s beginning to sound a lot like Treason,
Every single night,
They’re starting to sing the blues,
Over at Faux “news”,
‘Coz they’re feeling the noose get tight!
