Oh nose! He said, “That isn’t how White men fight”

But we had crickets when Biden said if a Black didn’t vote for him, they weren’t really Black...

Eyes opening yet?

I’m sorry, but is introspection now dishonorable?

If it was written to us, then it’s ours too. My guess is that’s the source. Who it was written to.

It’s the fact that while he didn’t overtly state it, he inferred white people don’t…..well you know. And that’s what nailed him.

It’s great to see FAUX News outing themselves by showing their trues colors.

There’s nothing better than to see the evil concealed that’s finally revealed.

Please do not be sorry. Tucker Carlson has been trying to point out, that open debate may include some rough considerations around the perimeter of what is on a person’s mind.

People not only write in rough drafts, but they also speak in rough drafts. We write imperfectly and speak imperfectly.

I think, that Tucker Carlson is - in a roundabout way - speaking and writing - now - campaigning for people forgiving the rough spots, listening, reading, and waiting for what another person is trying to say.

I believe, that Tucker Carlson is interested in mechanisms (solutions) that actually work - and such, are not instantly forthcoming but something that requires application, craftsmanship, focus . . . trial and error.

Patience.

I believe the following interview is a great example of a Tucker Carlson interview.

There are moments when his mind races, but those are followed (sometimes a while later) by his regaining composure.

Kellie-Jay Keen’s remarks about what defines a woman, and where the left has gone nuts (re “transgenderism”); originally broadcast on Fox News, May 23, 2022:

So if a Black person says something along the lines of “that’s not how black peoples does…..”, then is that also racist?

I agree that the left wing gets more upset with patent or latent racism. But it seems the fear is the it will upset people on the right. Otherwise, the pushback would be nonexistent.

We had a guy on the radio here in Pittsburgh who did a Conservative AM talk show. Jim Quinn.

Was incredibly popular show.

Left wing nutter took over and fired him, just because he didn’t like conservatism. Station has NEVER recovered in the AM Slot in the ratings.

His firing had nothing to do with ratings or anything but the new guy running it being a liberal.

How are these “Tucker messages” getting out? Did the NYT hack Fox? These are Fox internal messages. I Fox dripping these out to hurt Tucker? Does other Fox talent have something to fear?

Fox was so worried that the email would become public that they leaked it?

That’s what gets me. It’s a silly comment. I like Tucker and he speaks for me a lot, but white men absolutely do fight like that with many people against a single person. Black men fight like that. Women fight like that. If you say that white men only fight under Queensbury rules is either kidding themselves or want to shine others on.

“None of that applies in a news sense.”

Of course it does.

Why do you think we can only post excerpts here for most sources?

Can a newspaper publish a bootlegged novel from a best selling author because it’s newsworthy?

Exactly. Stupid comment. And a dog whistle.

The PDF file of:

US Dominion, Inc., Dominion Voting Systems, Inc., and Dominion Voting Systems Corporation, Plaintiffs, v. Fox News Network, LLC, Defendant.

Case No. N21C-03-257 EMD CONSOLIDATED Public Version Filed on February 16, 2023

. . . may be downloaded at:

https://www.washingtonpost.com/documents/59b93674-ba03-4bc1-94da-5e15f776fc43.pdf?itid=lk_inline_manual_10

The PDF file is 192 pages.

The Tucker Carlson text message that the New York Times included online at:

https://www.nytimes.com/2023/05/02/business/media/tucker-carlson-text-message-white-men.html

and I included in my reply 28 above, does NOT show in that PDF file, supposedly because, as the NYT 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."

But I *suspect* that the particular message is actually part of Abby Grossberg's lawsuit. Because the content of the particular Tucker Carlson message, is not related to the Dominion matter - instead, the content points to Abby Grossberg's complaint re prejudice.

Also, I have been scrolling up and down thru the Dominion case, and I have not found any leading or following information that might indicated where the particular Tucker Carlson message would be.

I have not found any evidence online, or in the PDF file, that Tucker Carlson said what the New York Times claims.
