Yeah, but the hilarity is that many Carlson viewers don't watch his show for the hyperbole or entertainment. They view it as literal, legitimate news and take it at face-value. No, the Dems aren't going to be "enforcing a system" that brings about the "end of democracy, dissent, and the Constitution" just as if Trump wins isn't going to put us into a fascist New World Order with Trump declaring himself God Emperor.
The real-world is much more jejune than either of those situations.
Wut?
Carlson's a pundit, not a journalist. His is a commentary show with a clear and stated bias, that of Tucker's own viewpoints. The only "news" ever shown on Tucker is cut-aways to actual news clips, or breaking reports (such as speeches from candidates, etc.).
I mean, what Tucker viewers have you ever met that thought that he's news? "Fox News" in general is a pretty poor channel if you want news. They only air a few hours of it per day. Most is pundit talk. Some with bi-partisan round tables, some straight conservative, and some straight dem.
They're mostly unique in their reporting due to using local fox stations (actual on the ground reporting) which preexist "Fox News" as an aggregate, rather than the AP or Reuters.
