The newest host of a primetime program on Fox News is a familiar face on cable news. Tucker Carlson was fired from CNN and MSNBC before Fox dredged him up. And like many pathetic, right-wing rescues, Carlson has found a welcome home on Fox<\/a><\/strong>. That’s because he’s willing to suppress any evidence of having a soul. Prior to becoming another supplicant in the Fox fold, Carlson said that they were “A mean, sick group of people.”<\/em> That was then.<\/p>\n

\"Tucker
\n<\/a><\/p>\n

Now Carlson was interviewed<\/a><\/strong> by TheWrap, an entertainment website. Typical of the Fox branded rhetoric, he expressed his extreme dislike of Hollywood. It’s funny that conservatives are so quick to bash America’s entertainment capital, unless the subject is one of their own. Then they elect them to be president. This has played out from Ronald Reagan to Donald Trump.<\/p>\n

TheWrap reports that Carlson believes the movie business is about to go belly up. His reasoning emanates from his innate hatred of liberals. He accuses them of \u201clacking all self awareness.\u201d<\/em> He also says they \u201clack empathy\u201d<\/em> and are “distant physically and culturally from the rest of the country.\u201d<\/em> Remember that this coming from a resident of New York City who was born into a wealthy family and whose father was a TV executive and later ambassador to the Seychelles. With that elitist background Carlson goes on to malign Hollywood liberals saying that…<\/p>\n

\u201cThey can\u2019t accept the election results for the same reason their business model is crumbling, and Hollywood won\u2019t exist in its present form in 20 years,\u201d Carlson told TheWrap. \u201cHollywood is going out of business because they don\u2019t understand the country they are selling a product to. They\u2019re completely out of touch because they\u2019re rich and entitled.\u201d<\/strong><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

First of all, according to the Hollywood Reporter, the film industry just ended a record breaking year<\/a><\/strong> with box office earnings exceeding 11.3 billion dollars. So much for a “crumbling”<\/em> business model. If success is based on understanding the country, then Hollywood is doing a much better job of it than Carlson, who is the poster child for wealth and entitlement. What’s more, in this Technology Age, no business will exist in its present form in 20 years, you dumb cluck. But Carlson isn’t through demonstrating how pitifully little he understands:<\/p>\n

“They think that anyone who voted for Trump is as bad as they believe Trump is. So, they think Trump\u2019s immoral, he\u2019s a bigot, he\u2019s a bad human being and they assume that anybody who voted for Trump is the same. That\u2019s over 60 million people. If you felt there were 60 million people in your country who are evil, you\u2019d be very upset.”<\/strong><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

We are very upset. But not because we believe that everyone in the country is as bad as Trump (who is awfully bad). But because so many were foolish enough to be swayed by an immoral, bigoted con man. And certainly some are as bad, or worse, than Trump. Take a look at his cabinet.<\/p>\n

Carlson also had some more vitriol to spew at those left coast libs. He said that \u201cThey hate the rest of the country \u2014 that\u2019s the truth.\u201d<\/em> And if anyone knows anything about hate, It’s little Tucker. But perhaps the most idiotic thing he said in this interview was…<\/p>\n

\u201cWho watches movies? Who would? Not me. I wouldn\u2019t cross the street to watch a movie for free.\u201d<\/strong><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

And this is someone who professes to know who is out of touch and who isn’t. Millions of Americans in those rural flyover states love movies and spend their hard-earned money to watch them in theaters and on TV. But Carlson apparently thinks their dopes who are wasting their time. Superior intellects like his can’t be bothered with such peasantry.<\/p>\n

In the final analysis, Carlson has shown that he has no idea what’s going on in one of the nation’s biggest industries. But even worse, he’s made it abundantly clear that he’s the one who hates everyday Americans and who has no grasp of what the people of this nation care about. He’s a close-minded, country club, aristocrat with no connection to the heartland he pretends to defend. Is this a good time to remind him that a majority of the country voted against his Bonehead Messiah, Donald Trump?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
