Putin mocks Tucker Carlson in freewheeling interview about Ukraine and jailed journalist: Updates

Putin Humiliates Tucker Carlson After Interview

Ukraine Issues Blistering Response to Putin Ally’s Tucker Carlson Comment

Sad,

YEAH!

Great example:

“The Base” is listening to Tucker:

Tucker Carlson-fueled Republicans drop tough-on-Russia stance

“Republicans running in high-profile primary races aren’t racing to defend Ukraine against a possible Russian invasion. They’re settling on a different line of attack: Blame Biden, not Putin.”

How Tucker Carlson Is Boosting Russia’s New Propaganda War

“As Putin and Biden talk, Kremlin mouthpieces are rushing to explain the motivations behind Russia’s surge in aggression. Fox News is helping them do their work.“

Tucker Carlson justifying an invasion of Ukraine is where he has been heading all along

• “Fox host Tucker Carlson aired an opening segment Tuesday sympathizing with Russian aggression.
• Carlson laid out his justification for Putin to invade Ukraine, pitted against the US and NATO.
• The opinion host urged his viewers to “begin to internalize” that the US is wrong to punish Russia if they invade.”

Tucker Carlson defends Putin over Ukraine troop movements, saying he ‘just wants to keep his border safe’

‘That’s Right’: Tucker Carlson Nods Along, Agrees as Guest Warns ‘The Right Is Going to Pick a Fascist Within 10 to 20 Years’

“They will break down. They’re breaking down, Tucker,” Kelly said. “I have said this before and I’m telling you I’m worried that I’m right. The right is going to pick a fascist within 10 to 20 years…

At that point Carlson nodded and quietly added: “Right, that’s right.””

Why Fox News won’t cut Tucker Carlson loose — even after ‘Patriot Purge’

“When one pulls back and looks at Fox’s broader situation, letting Carlson engage in conspiracy-mongering makes a lot of sense.”

Chris Wallace Leaves Fox News Channel to Join CNN Plus

“Chris Wallace is leaving Fox News Channel, he announced on his program Sunday morning, and will join the CNN Plus streaming-video outlet, a move that abruptly sunders the cable-news outlet’s connection with one of its most recognized and independent journalists.”

Tucker Carlson’s ‘Patriot Purge’ was the final straw

“I quit Fox News after more than a decade as a contributor. So did my business partner and friend Steve Hayes.”

Why Tucker Carlson went to Hungary

“With this trip, which he will cap with a speech to Orbán’s far-right party, Carlson has become the face of right-wing support for the authoritarian regime. But praise for Orbán’s illiberal authoritarianism is widespread on the right. In part that is because they share common enemies: liberal politicians, immigrants, and George Soros, the Hungarian-born philanthropist who has become the most prominent boogeyman of both Orbán and the US right. But it is also because many on the right see something to admire in the authoritarian leader, a model they hope to replicate in the US — most importantly, how to sidestep democracy while still praising it.”

Why it matters that Tucker Carlson is broadcasting from Hungary this week
