A-Block (1:14) SPECIAL COMMENT: As he set out to gaslight his Gullibles into believing the January 6th video “proves” there was a false flag, with “sight-seers” led astray by a few “hooligans”, what was the ONE thing Tucker Carlson could NOT do? What, as the prospect of a $1,600,000,000 damage judgment against Fox loomed in the Dominion Voting Systems defamation case, did he need to avoid at all costs? Say something like ”The 2020 election was a grave betrayal of American democracy, given the facts that have since emerged about that election. No honest person can deny it.” He RE-ENACTED FOX’S LIES FROM 2020 as documented in the Dominion depositions and texts. If that weren’t good (bad) enough he also defamed Liz Cheney and Adam Kinzinger. I guess they’ll have to co-own the channel with Dominion.
Now what?
Does Rupert Murdoch throw Carlson overboard? Fire him to try to tamp down the Dominion Crisis AND the Cheney/Kinzinger crisis? How did Fox let him put this on? How did Sean Hannity and Laura Ingraham and the others not strangle Carlson into unconsciousness rather than let him do what he did? Carlson’s shtick was unsurprisingly thin. But at least he added a catchphrase to the lexicon of lying and manipulation: “The Video Proves This.” (NARRATOR: The video didn’t prove this).
Isn’t ADIDAS short for “Adidas: Daily I Defend AntiSemitism”?
C-Block EVERY DOG HAS ITS DAY
(cuts in at 34:55) THINGS I PROMISED NOT TO TELL: Since we’re talking Fox and Dominion and whether Rupert Murdoch is now going to scapegoat Tucker Carlson, how about the other guy he DID scapegoat, Lou Dobbs? 42 years ago Lou Dobbs’s rumored messy personal life led directly to the start of my TV career at CNN.
That’s all the damage for now. Good morning, good afternoon, good night, and good luck.
