Tucker Carlson Warns Future White House Critics: You're Next

The Daily Beast:

The Obama people aren't at war with Fox because it's conservative. They're angry because Fox has embarrassed them. Its correspondents ask hard questions. Its primetime hosts got Van Jones fired from the White House by exposing him as a 9/11 denier. If Keith Olbermann had done the same thing--and don't hold your breath--David Axelrod might be denouncing MSNBC this week. Politics is seldom as ideological as it seems.

Which is something the White House press corps ought to keep in mind as it stands by in silence while Fox is bullied: Your politics won't save you. You'll be next.

I'm not sure if he ever was somebody but, if he was, he is now the youngest has-been in history. Maybe he has a future at Fox - don't know because I don't watch it. How much air-time does he get there?

I'm guessing at his next job. Sara Pallin's campaign spokesman - whenever she runs for something? Public Relations officer at the George W. Bush library? George Will's gardener?

Tucker Carlson...GOOD DOG. Fox will hire anyone who would agree with them and rid themselves of those who don't. Obama is right about Fox. I don't think he should continue with the attacks, because they are unbecoming of the Presidency, but he is right.

Tucker is so not revelant. With all his daddy's money, daddy can't by him a brain, or a media show.

I'm sorry. You're pushing a what?

[greysells2]

Nobody is scared but you, Tuck. You're scared of becoming more irrelevant.

[dengal]

I still giggle when I think about jon stewart schooling him on his own show. . . .

Ah come on tucker...Stop whining!!! You can dish it out but you can't take!!!!

[1jdgriff]

Tucker knows bullies. . . . . wearing his bow tie from grade school until just recently, he must have been bullied a lot. Fortunately Tucker is just not relevant in anyone's world. To quote Biden, "Who Cares?"

Indeed, the HPo may be getting high on the WH enemies list after Ms Huff's article demanding the resignation of Joe Biden.

you didn't read it, did you?

Nope..He/she is another Charter member of the "we hope B.S. baffles brains club"!!

And the dooshbag of the day award goes to... Way to further the human race and prove to any life forms that may be "watching us from space." that we are indeed as stupid as we look. I really really hope we are alone in the universe, because If we're not.. we must be the laughing stock of it.

What do you expect Mr. Carlson. The WH should hand over roses for the way they have demonized our president?

[amcg50]

Tucker is fighting for relavance

[proudloudlib]

This is just Tucker Carlson trying to regain some measure of relevance. Accept the fact, Tucker, you are an even worse journalist than you were a dancer on DWTS.

[MyGuyO]

Yes, and am somewhat happy that he is no longer on MSNBC.

Unfortunately I clicked on this story and went to the Daily Beast before I realized it was to an article written by Tucker Carlson. I will now be counted as traffic to the page of someone I think is worse than even Bill Kristol and that's saying something. Both of these "men" have the same background...they are where they are today (wherever that is) because of their daddies and mommies. Carlson has been on every cable "news" network out there. He is old news. Nothing he says is based in fact and, like Kristol, he is one of the most inarticulate writers in the righties never ending warehouse of thoughtless thinkers. One has to wonder how he keeps getting a job. Tina?

Faux isn't about being a critic, it's about perpetrating propaganda and lying.

[nexxtep54]

While I agree with most posts here that Tucker should go back into hiding, I still want to know how he maintains the look of a pre-teen boy.

[Dissident Dexter]

because you are what you eat

[MyGuyO]

Do you think it was his dancing skit on Dancing with the Stars?

[solarian]

human sacrifice

[elizlucinda]

Cheap drugs and a good plastic surgeon

Oh, Nip and Tuck-er Carlson!
