I like Carlson’s youtube videos but the two sides tend to talk over each other too much. It’s exhausting.

Political discussions on TV and radio should function with a microphone like a chess clock. Each side gets a set amount of time. While one person talks, the other cannot (dead microphone). Once you make your point, you tap the clock to give your opponent a turn.

The left cannot function under such rules. They basically try to "jam" or shout down their opponent so that the Conservative view can never be heard. Unfortunately, Tucker and some other hosts use the same tactic. It degrades the quality of discussion.

If that were the case we would hear even less of the people who are actually interesting. Hannity kills me. He has the best guests on his show like Sara Carter and Greg Jarrett who have important and interesting things to say and he runs them over like a parrot on meth. The other night he spoke for about 3 minutes of their segment and those two got in about 2 minutes between them. They often have new information and he regurgitates the same points over and over.

Tucker has some pretty extreme guests on his show and I just forward through it. He makes some great points here and there, but it gives me a headache to listen to it all.

It has become painful. I am still mad at him, but the one can’t miss show on Fox now is Life, Liberty, and Levin. The first show with Walter Williams was possibly the best hour on Fox News I have ever seen. He gives the floor to the guest, which is amazingly refreshing.

Equal time would be unfair, even discriminatory.

See tag line.
