The judge overseeing TC's libel case wrote: "Fox persuasively argues, that given Mr. Carlson's reputation, any reasonable viewer 'arrive[s] with an appropriate amount of skepticism' about the statements he makes."
Reasonable viewers would not describe the overwhelming majority of TC's fans. They take his blathering's as gospel.
Faux had to argue that. If Carlson got successfully sued for libel it would be open season on their entire lineup of evening "entertainers".

TC wrapping his commentary in comedy? Suurrre that's what Tucker's fans say every night. That TC, he sure is a funny guy.
D, were you dropped on your head as a child?

The world of politics is a world of comedy.

One Zelensky even carried it to another level...he is a comedian who became president. Take a look at some of the main stream politicians. One is so disheveled his appearance induced laughter. Check their pronouncements.
Can one react with a straight face?

TC's schtick is to induce ridicule/laughter by playing on glaring contradictions. People tune in because they enjoy the spectacle especially relating to politicians.

BTW TC's case had precedent in that of Rachel Maddow.
His lawyers used similar arguments employed earlier by Maddow's lawyers.
