Michael Brendan Dougherty, left, and Fox News host Tucker Carlson on March 29 in Washington. By Erik Wemple Erik Wemple Media critic with a focus on the ups and downs and downs of the cable-news industry. Email Bio Follow Media critic April 2 at 1:28 PM Fox News host Tucker Carlson was forced in March to look in the mirror. A batch of decade-old radio recordings unearthed by Media Matters for America exposed Carlson’s awful thoughts on women, race and other topics.
On Carlson’s Fox News program Monday night, he disclosed another reason he might just resist apologizing for something: It’s for sissies. The revelation came as Carlson was attacking Chris Hayes, the prime-time host over at MSNBC. His gripe was that Hayes last Friday hosted an event at the Albert Einstein College of Medicine in the Bronx with Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez . The topic was the Green New Deal.
Then Carlson personalized his media criticism: “Chris Hayes is what every man would be if feminists ever achieve absolute power in this country. Apologetic, bespectacled and deeply, deeply concerned about global warming and the patriarchal systems that cause it.”
