One of the great lessons of the Trump era is that, without shame, there is no such thing as a scandal. We need to bring back shame as a political value.

My point exactly.

Just lie to me and give me hope. That’s what the comment section and boxed wine is for.

Yeah, I’m pretty much over thinking any of this is going to get better.

Remember in the mind of the conservative asshole they are entitled to say and do anything without fear of consequence or reprisal. Anyone else? I mean the list is too long but here are examples of those that aren’t allowed to say anything to offend these bitch ass pussies: Women, Women of Color, Women that make money,…

did you miss the “that’s what decent people do” part?

Yes sir, freedom of speech isn’t freedom from consequences.

For the most part I think you’re talking about hosts who had some sort of personal scandal break.   Even by Fox News standards, these rants were bad, as typically Fox News hosts are better than this about dog whistling their bigotry, but seeing as these aren’t rape allegations, it’s possible that Fox News may now be…

This whole thing is completely insane. These people do the same to any non-Republican celebrities or politicians, go thru their past, find dirt, expose it, then demand that person be fired. When it happens to them, it’s “NO!!! FREEDOM OF SPEECH!!”.

Fun fact: if you google “Tucker Carlson confused”, you get approx 200 different variations of this face:

I don’t know what’s more upsetting - this, or the fact that it’s becoming totally normalized for these people to defend really abhorrent things as “free speech” when there is zero government intervention whatsoever. Yes, you are free to say these horrifically shitty things, it doesn’t mean that when people find it…

Not really optimism, just acknowledgment that there is a long line of FOX news personalities behind Tucker that, just like him, believed they had the backing of a huge, multinational corporation right up until they didn’t. They are just as much out of a job now as I suspect Carlson will be soon.

Had anyone established superman's laundry throughput? 2 loads a minute? 50 a day? 

This keeps being reported as him “getting caught” as if it were recorded surreptitiously, like he was spewing hate at a restaurant and someone pointed a directional mic at him. But he wasn’t caught doing this, he actively broadcast it. He said all this shit on a live radio program without compunction. We should not be…

“Second, we’ve always apologized... that’s what decent people do, guys.”

I wish I shared your optimism. 

He’ll get his. When the sponsors start pulling out of their advertising buys and it goes on for a week or two, this smug little schmuck will fold faster than Superman on laundry day.

Trump doesn’t apologize for saying stupid shit, why should double chinned middle aged man named Tucker apologize? The things he and Trump say are the same shit that white Republicans have been saying in private for years.  

I will probably be proven wrong on this, but my feeling is that he is gone by next week. If there’s one thing FOX has shown in the past, it’s that they are not above tossing their talent to the wolves when keeping them on either causes them bad press (not actually the case here, since this kind of stuff actually plays…

I mean was anyone really surprised? This was every Republican’s shtick from the mid-2000's to the early-aughts. And Fox has already made clear that overt racism and sexism aren’t a barrier to work. Just destroy his advertiser base.
