In a newly revealed text message, ousted Fox News host Tucker Carlson made a racist comment and said he found himself briefly rooting for a mob of Trump supporters to kill a person.

Meh “It’ not how White men fight” isn’t so bad, comparatively.
On her videos and Podcast, Megyn Kelly reads this whole thing Tucker said. They took a couple sentences and left out all that this was about. There was nothing racist about what he said.
Once again, if you hear it all, you like him more.
I respect that Megyn Kelly is defending Tucker Carlson.
Tucker didn’t refer to any racial group in any negative way.
Zactly. I can attest to that.
This is actually a very interesting thing (relatively speaking).
Saying, “It’s not how white men fight” is different from “White men can’t jump” how?
Both “racist” and “anti-semitic” now cover ANY affirmative statement about groups, even when those statements are true - but they hate the term “anti-white” when used in exactly the same way.
This was not why he was fired; if Fox mentions it, it is just cover. They had to remove him to get another Republocrat in there.
What’s racist about that?
Tucker’s White.
Tucker Carlson January 7, 2021 — 04:18:04 PM UTC A couple of weeks ago, I was watching video of people fighting on the street in Washington. A group of Trump guys surrounded an Antifa kid and started pounding the living shit out of him. It was three against one, at least. Jumping a guy like that is dishonorable obviously. It’s not how white men fight. Yet suddenly I found myself rooting for the mob against the man, hoping they’d hit him harder, kill him. I really wanted them to hurt the kid. I could taste it. Then somewhere deep in my brain, an alarm went off: this isn’t good for me. I’m becoming something I don’t want to be. The Antifa creep is a human being. Much as I despise what he says and does, much as I’m sure I’d hate him personally if I knew him, I shouldn’t gloat over his suffering. I should be bothered by it. I should remember that somewhere somebody probably loves this kid, and would be crushed if he was killed. If I don’t care about those things, if I reduce people to their politics, how am I better than he is?About that alleged message by Tucker Carlson, the New York Times states:
"The text is part of redacted court filings and its contents were previously unreported. The contents of the text were disclosed in interviews with several people close to the defamation lawsuit against Fox. The people spoke on the condition of anonymity because they did not want to be identified discussing a message that is protected by a court order. In public filings, it remains hidden behind a block of black text."Ref.: https://www.nytimes.com/2023/05/02/business/media/tucker-carlson-text-message-white-men.html

I have been scrolling up and down thru the Dominion case, and I have not found any leading or following information that might indicate where the particular Tucker Carlson message would be.
I can imagine a black man saying, “That’s not how a black man fights!” — and there would only be admiring nods.
Is Hoel Embiid racist for stating he watched while basketball players form so he could make 3 pointers?
All this racist crap is so 2009…
Sorry…autocorrect
Joel Embiid
White not while
She has really come out on her own.
She is an actual journalist is a sea of demons.
The use of the word “racist” is always an indicator that the argument is lost. I automatically go into IGNORE mode when I read or hear it.

Anyone remember “White Men Can’t Jump”?
They’re doing it.
The question is why.
FYI
When you see the CBS tag on a news story, expect more BS than c.
