Tucker Carlson again ridicules the "Kagans".

Tucker is the only person in MSM to consistently take on the "Kagans".

Uncle Joe, Cold War hawk.

It seems to me that the Fox News is mainstream media. Their content is more propaganda than news.

I'm not sure what he means by "Kagans".

Carlson is essentially an entertainer. Good many democrats and independents realize this and are tuning in.

His tools...facial expression, timing and creative use of language.

With so many comedians intimidated with deplatforming he has occupied the gap.

Disinformation is "entertainment"?
A pretty lame justification.

Disinformation is bipartisan and a main feature of MSM.

What TC has done is to wrap it with comedy.

BTW what was Faux News response to a case against TC.
My old head cannot remember but I think the line was...TC's production should not be taken seriously.

TV is entertainment, most of which is pretty lame.

Check out Network. Trumpism, i.e. his original base, is a group shouting "we're mad as hell, and we're not going to take this anymore." And it's like a virus. There's even a blue variant out there now.
