Russian Media Loves Tucker Carlson

Post by K Graham »

Could you imagine the hysteria that would ensue from the Right if Russian or Chinese media played segments of Rachel Maddow just to praise her?

And the Republicans keep calling the Democrats Communists. Irony overload.

What do Russian TV hosts think of Fox's Carlson?

Do you know who else watches FOX and Tucker? CNN. CNN puts FOX on CNN more than they put CNN on CNN. I made that last factoid up, but you get the point. I am just trying to provide a reaction to the OP, really. But that Stelter guy is always talking about FOX and Tucker. He even wrote a book about FOX, which required him to watch a lot of FOX, bless his heart.

By the way, does Daniel Peterson watch FOX on FOX, or FOX on CNN, or FOX on Russian media? Again, I could not possibly give less of a damn what the answer is, I just wanted to help the cause here by providing the solicited reaction.

More to the point. I do not watch FOX. I do not watch CNN. I am happy to discuss, however, why FOX and Tucker are so triggering.

Not sure what your point is. CNN covers FOX because it is the single greatest cause for all the hatred and division in this country and it spewed misinformation on a daily basis, sometimes to even a laughable degree. That's hardly the same thing as Russian media fawning over Tucker Carlson's rhetoric which attacks Ukraine and defends Russia/Putin, even relaying their own talking points.

Yeah, Marshall McLuhan's ghost continuously pokes at us, to remind us that he got it right all those years ago.

Russians for Trump!

Trump’s Mega-Fans in Moscow Declare They’re ‘Ready to Elect Him Again’

“The city on a hill is again being taken over by the Trumpists. Donald already declared that he will become the 47th president of America and will figure things out with Russia and Putin,” host Olga Skabeeva said on Monday’s segment of the Russian TV show 60 Minutes. “Donald, we're waiting for you and are ready to elect you again.”

HFS! Could you imagine... never mind. We already know what would happen if they said this about a Democrat.
