Despite consistently drawing more than 3 million people to his primetime show on Fox News, anchor Tucker Carlson claimed on Thursday that he was not aware of his record-breaking numbers.
Carlson claims that he doesn’t know how to interpret a rating chart. He said to ask anyone who has collaborated with or works with him. He doesn’t ever check the ratings.
He said he doesn’t know his ratings, and he means it. He says he doesn’t even own a television.
Carlson regularly shatters the record for US history’s most-watched cable news show.
The left loathes Carlson, often depicting him as a white supremacist.
Carlson says that there are undoubtedly many things you might criticize about him, including the fact that he occasionally has a bad temper. But you wouldn’t find a single instance in his messages, private talks, or thoughts where he says, “I’m upset with Black people.”
He said, “Well-educated white liberals are the only people I’m angry at. “I think a 38-year-old white female lawyer with a barren personal life is the epitome of a person I don’t like. I get yelled at on airplanes by that person.”
