Don't volunteer to be ambushed live on television

quote:

Carlson’s line of attack against Wemple—that he’s a lapdog for his employers and scared to criticize the Washington Post—is patently untrue, and, as Wemple points out, rich coming from an ostensible journalist who is on the record forbidding his own reporters and journalists from criticizing Fox News.

Of course, Tucker Carlson knows that. He knows he is being both dishonest and incredibly hypocritical, and that the evidence of his hypocrisy and dishonesty is incredibly easy to find. He also doesn’t care!




quote:

If you’re a person who strives to be honest and forthright in your work, and especially if you are a person who is not a trained and experienced professional on-air personality, you are at an immediate disadvantage the moment you agree to be on a cable news show, especially one hosted by someone utterly lacking in shame. You, the ambushee, receive no benefit from agreeing to appear on a bad cable news show as a designated punching bag. You get nothing, unless you’re really excited to get a free ride in a town car to a TV studio. Maybe if you really want someone to apply a lot of pancake makeup to your face but you are too nervous to ask someone at the Macy’s counter, appearing on Fox News to be harangued by a washed-up fraud is worth it.

I can translate those statements by Deadspin. If you are a leftist progressive for God's sake dont go on Tucker. He deals in Facts not Feelings. He is kicking names and taking asses.

I've read those linked/quoted passages twice now.
They border on incoherence.
Not all bloggers should be published.

Translation: Don't go on Tucker's show if you're a leftist because you'll get rekt.

That deserved an article

Tucker crushed that poor Wapo guy. It was brutal.

I don't understand the backlash Carlson has gotten for saying he doesn't let those who work for him criticize FoxNews.

That's a basic fricking rule of the adult world, you don't publically attack the people who write your checks.

I guess if you live under a rock and don't do research as a journalist, then yes, you could get ambushed in his show.

Night after night, they know they're going on there...but these people have never had to defend their position...and when countered by facts, they cry...

You must not watch it...it's the same every night...except for the evil chick, he just let her rant because it made her look like a brownshirt...she look/acted evil as hell.

They so mad because Tucker asks them to elaborate or defend something they wrote or said. The question "why" rustles their jimmies.

If this were all true, you'd think Deadspin would encourage people to keep debating him. Certainly there are leftists capable of exposing Tucker if it's so easy.
