Tucker Carlson Chosen to Replace Bill O'Reilly

[eastcoast_bsc]

I liked Bill O'Reilly despite his obvious faults. But in a political world based on taking your opponent off the board, Bill O'Reilly got whacked. It seems he couldn't keep his hands to himself and that cost him. The same media that protected Bill Clinton in the midst of rape allegations and him touching everything but the 3rd rail and including his DNA on a blue dress pounced on Bill O'Reilly when they finally found a weakness.

I liked how O'Reilly offered a counter to the effete and arrogant Jake Tappers of the world or the ever dour Rachel Madfows who sneeted at the working class and especially those of faith.

I like Tucker Carlson and I feel he can think on his feet and has a keen intellect.
His skills will be needed, the jackals lie in wait.

Hi Eastcoast, I liked the O'Reilly Factor as well, most of the time And I agree with your take on his show, and that what he offered was important, but he's out: Fox News drops Bill O'Reilly in wake of harassment allegations

I'm not sure that Tucker is the right guy to fill his shoes however

Here's Tucker Carlson defending statutory rape

If you had listened to what he had to say in entirety then you probably would refrain from posting sound bytes.

What he did say is that this type of behaviour is different for boys and girls. He stated that for girls this would be traumatic experience but for a 15 year old boy a lap dance by a hot teacher would be bragging rights. He further stated that for boys a common fantasy is to be seduced by a hot teacher.

Right or wrong aside. Most 15 year old boys would be declared a hero by his mates for the aforementioned scenario.

That being said I think it is wrong.

I feel that Tucker is the only one who can operate in the midst of the onslaught that will surely come. And make no mistake the minions at the NYT times are pouring through any and all past clips.

I watched Bill O'Reilly every night just about, so it's sad to see him go. He's been a stable in my family for many years. My grandpa got me into watching him.

I can see both sides of the coin here. I don't think it's fair to cut someone because they get accused of something. We're innocent until proven guilty, but some people act like he's guilty until proven innocent. That doesn't mean he's innocent though either. I don't know the best way to handle these situations.

I like Tucker Carlson, but there's something off about him I don't like. He seems like a boyish version of Bill who's waiting to have his training wheels taken off. I'd love for Tomi Lahren to come in and have her own show after Fox lost two of their top women.

I think she comes across as a ditz and lacks the gravitas. I think the main stream media would shred her.

Just my thoughts.

Not only wrong, disgusting. She did it for four minutes in front of a class. What is this nation collapsing into?

I agree it is wrong but my point on how boys would react versus girls I feel is correct.

Perhaps you are right. We shall see

I don't like Carlson. Don't care for Hannity either. Watters is usually good.

 

[Sword of the Lord]

Bill was the primary reason I watched FNC. Tucker is the reason I turn the channel.

So is anyone going to watch Caitlyn Jenner on Tucker Carlson tonight?

Hopefully not.

 

[Michie]

I'm watching. I'm curious since Jenner did vote for Trump.

 

[eastcoast_bsc]

I watched, she was mainly concerned with flogging her book. When Tucker would press her on another topic she would remind him that was not what she was there to talk about.

Nothing revealing.

My thoughts exactly. I find either dealing with Bruce or Caitlyn, it appears that it is dealing with a very self absorbed personality.

Agree. I don't mind promoting the book but he should be willing to answer real questions. Those that called 0'Reilly rude sometimes didn't undetstand time constraints and that he was pushing the guest to answer the question and not fillibuster.

Bruce Jenner is about Bruce Jenner.

Always?
If you or Tucker thinks there aren't plenty of teenage girls who would consider it bragging rights to have "seduced" their hot 24 year old teacher than you have no clue about the teenage population and how one group would feel or not.

He further stated that for boys a common fantasy is to be seduced by a hot teacher.

And because of that fantasy, an adult coercing that child into such action will have no detrimental effect on the child, and does not damage the child in any way?

Was that his argument?
Is it yours?

Right or wrong aside. Most 15 year old boys would be declared a hero by his mates for the aforementioned scenario.

Which, again, proves its not damaging...how?

So if it were a girl, as long as she hangs out with friends who are egging her on to hit on "professor dreamy" and would consider her a hero if she succeeded, then it's not as bad?

That being said I think it is wrong.

But not wrong enough to condemn the apologists?

What if it was a gay teacher and gay student who would likewise see it as bragging rights?

Wrong but, hey the kid liked it and his friends thought it was cool, so.. ahh, fuggedaboudit...

This line of thinking makes me physically ill.

I have to say I'm shocked to see you promoting it.
