I mean, its a feature not a bug, most developed countries have a method of taking over broadcasting in case of emergencies, war, hurricanes, whatnot. And Tucker knows this of course so he is operating on 2000% bad faith. The level of ignorance he'd have to claim otherwise is not on the spectrum.

It's always bad faith. He know exactly what he's doing. They should just rename the Republican party to The Bad Faith Party. TBFP? BFP?

Whatever happened with this story, by the way?

www.reuters.com

FBI looking at Murdoch operations in Russia

An FBI investigation into possible criminal violations by Rupert Murdoch's News Corp of a U.S. law banning bribery of foreign officials has expanded to include an examination of the activities of former company holdings in Russia, according to a source close to the investigation...
www.reuters.com www.reuters.com

And is there a deeper significance to this one?

www.rollingstone.com

How a Former Fox News Director Landed in Jail for Pushing Putin Propaganda

He fell in love with Mother Russia — and an oligarch's cash. But a disregard for sanctions and lying to the FBI could land him in prison
www.rollingstone.com www.rollingstone.com

I know nothing about them, was just googling for any comments about Murdoch's attitude to Putin (given Tucker Carlson's blatant pro-Putin stance on Fox, while Murdoch's Sun newspaper seems to take the completely opposite tack) but can't help but notice the lack of followup news on the first one (there's just that report, from a decade ago, then nothing).

I’m not saying that Carlson is an actual active Russian agent, I’m just saying that it’s hard to think of what he’d be saying if he were said agent, that he isn’t actually already saying .

If he isn’t a paid Russian agent, he’s sure doing a lot of unpaid volunteer work for Putin.

Well, there is the term "agent of influence", a term I think is used by both sides (all sides, in fact) in the spy business.

Which doesn't mean someone is a direct employee of a foreign nation's intelligence services, it just means they are someone who can, for whatever reason, be counted on to take a position useful to the government concerned, due to having overlapping interests. An example would be (depending on the global food trade situation) the Russian government might count American wheat farmers as such, on the grounds that those farmers have an economic interest in being able to sell their products to Russia, so could be counted on to oppose sanctions that would prevent them doing so.

Trump and his supporters could maybe be labelled as such, without requiring them to actually be taking orders from Moscow.

I wish someone had called out Carlson for his comment that asking vaccine status is akin to asking favorite sexual position, by saying "well you've already made that very clear, its your head up Turmp's ass, or your lips on Putin's dick"

Maybe he’s just appreciative of the pigmentation of Trump’s sack?


Fucker’s scraping the bottom barrel of sponsors, yet proving there isn’t anything he’s above shilling for. He’s just a paid mouthpiece (/ball sack receptacle) after all.

If Tucker wants to convince his fans to start concentrating UV rays on their scrotums, I don't think we should stop him.

saw in the other thread (lol--haven't read any of these blurbs), that it's IR light? Um...that ain't gonna tan anything.

I just realized all my life cats have been sacrificing their time sitting in my lap, saving my testes from the evils of cool air. Unsung heroes in the fight for testicular warmth. Just as dogs and rats can smell cancer etc. cats can sense chilly willies and are compelled to nurture them with their copious body heat. Praise them.

I’m thinking there’s a market to sell High-T underwear to conservatives that bathes the boys in healing natural IR that increases T*
(*laboratory tested does not increase testosterone)

Order some cheapo underwear from China in red white and blue and sell for $60 a pair. Advertise on Tucker right after the my pillow guy. Would make a fortune.

so basically turning a heat lamp on their balls is suppose to do what, exactly?

if I remember correctly, heat is the enemy of high sperm count, so it's not a good idea to wear whitie tighties if you're trying to conceive. can't imagine turning a heat lamp toward your balls is going to aid in that.
