Heslam: With Tucker Carlson pick, Fox takes step backward

I agree. Having a bunch of white guys in a lineup is racist.

[supremedoctrine]

Tucker is THE BEST choice FOX has ever made for a new show host!! I have been a big fan for the longest time!

[Terry Mross]

Is Fox losing viewers? If they think liberals will EVER watch them, they’re nuts. Once a liberal thinks you’re a conservative he’ll never believe otherwise. W gave them just about everything they wanted and they still hated him.

I don’t think they’ll watch Kelly much at Nbc, either. Nbc will SAY people are watching but....that can be expected.

[servo1969]

Going by the clips I've been seeing Carlson has been killing it over the last several weeks! If he keeps it up in his new timeslot he should do really well.

[DIRTYSECRET]

Kelly will do a 180 like too many others.

“Sure is a lot of white guys in the evening, huh?”

If Juan Williams were 1/2 as interesting as Tucker I might we him but, he’s not.

Hell, Greta was always intriguing but, she’s moved on and probably has some stip in her contract about bonuses if she can raise viewership for her time slots. I would.

I thought it was the content of the character that mattered Jessica?

[angryoldfatman]

Jessica should go on Tucker’s show and tell him exactly what she thinks.

Tucker can always use fresh meat. His grinder is nowhere near capacity.

[Bon mots]

He melts snowflakes.

That Maddow fellow is a nice looking young man, but I am not sure that Chris Hayes has enough testosterone in his body to qualify as a ‘guy’...

[Gargantua]

“Sure is a lot of white guys in the evening, huh?”

How sad that Jennifer never learned proper grammar, or when to say "Sure are a lot of...," especially given that she wants to be a reporter when she grows up. How very sad the lowered expectations of the "Gen Zilch" snowflakes.

He’s not going to be a big star,” Rivers said. “He’s not going to match Megyn Kelly, who just had this star power.”

In the words of Anthony Bourdain, we hired trump because we wanted someone to tear down the temple for us. Tucker fits that bill to a tee. Megyn will be forgotten soon enough...

[SharpRightTurn]

“Sure is a lot of white guys in the evening, huh?”

The nightmare among nightmares of all leftists.

[Exit148]

Doesn’t she realize it is not how he looks that got him the job? It is what comes out of his brain and mouth.

[MinuteGal]

I see what you did there !

[TBP]

As if all white guys are the same.

This si the problem with the way liberals think.

(And BTW, it’s racist as can be.)

[TBP]

Other than Tucker, do you know who else has been an anchor of a program on each of Fox, CNN, and MSNBC?

Greta will be joining that group soon, but there was someone before her.

[Bringbackthedraft]

“Sure is a lot of white guys in the evening, huh?” ............................. so what is their choice, Whoopie??? Trying to sink Fox? I’m waiting for a new TV news station like TNN, the Trump News Network. “The Right network for the truth.) Think about Mr. Trump, let Jr do it.

[Boomer]

Yeah, imagine them hiring the best person for the job rather than what kind of skin tone or plumbing they might have, the chutzpah I tell ya! Something like this could catch on nationwide then what will all our affirmative action degree people do? Find jobs they are qualified for? Can’t have that!

Martin Luther King understood it perfectly when he asked one thing and that was to be judged by the content of his character and not the color of his skin. Why can’t today’s liberal understand that basic truth? Rhetorical question.
