Tucker Carlson currently has the highest-rated cable news show in the country, and there’s a good reason for that. He is genuine and honest.
Tucker does something almost no one else in the media does. He invites people ignored by the rest of the media on his show and actually listens to them.
He recently appeared on a podcast and was asked what his biggest regret was, in terms of working in the media. His answer may surprise you.
Statusred provides a partial transcript:
CARLSON: I’ve been in media my whole life, my dad was in media. That’s a big part of the revelation that changed my life is that the media is part of the apparatus of control.
(crosstalk)
Yeah, I know, because you’re younger and smarter, and you say “yeah”.
But what if you’re me and you’ve spent your whole life in this world, and you look around and all of a sudden you’re like “oh wow”, not only are they part of the problem, but I’ve spent most of my life being part of the problem. Defend the war in Iraq, as I did. Can you imagine if you did?
CARLSON: For too long, I participated in the culture where I was like, “anyone who thinks outside of these pre-prescribed ways is crazy, is a conspiracy theorist.” And I really regret it, I’m ashamed of having done that.

After watching this video you realize Tucker could be fired for saying that😳. Considering how he really feels, I’d say he’s gone from Fox in a year🤔. Seriously, if his heart says so, how can he stay in legacy media🤷🏼♂️ pic.twitter.com/0ArAZhJjpA

Other people in the media never talk like that.
Has a single member of the liberal media ever apologized for pushing the lie of collusion with Russia? Of course not. Some even seem to still believe it.
It’s one of the things that sets Tucker apart. He is ready to be frank and admit his mistakes. It’s an admirable quality for someone who works in the media.
