Erin ’s Reviews > Hated by All the Right People: Tucker Carlson and the Unraveling of the Conservative Mind > Status Update

Carlson introduced his more than 4 million viewers, the largest audience in cable news history to The Great Replacement Theory. A tenant of far right white nationalist that holds that at the behest of Jews, is intent on increasing non white immigrants to "replace" and disempower white Americans.

Carlson landed his primetime Fox show because he was one of the first people on the network to recognize Trump's political appeal.

Steve Bannon viewed Breitbart News less as a political website dedicated to covering news than a political weapon designed to advance his and The Mercers' ideological agenda.

Tucker wanted The Daily Caller to be the conservative Huffington Post.

Matt Drudge of The Drudge Report, the preeminent political tip sheet, apparently hated Tucker. The source of Drudge's animus was a mystery, some believed he was turned off by Tucker's homophobia, Drudge is a rumored gay man.

Pat Buchanan had written a book, A Republic, Not an Empire, in which he attempted to rehabilitate Charles Lindbergh's "America First" policy.

Personally, Carlson took a dim, condescending view of Fox News

Had Carlson been born a few decades earlier, he would have had a long distinguished career in print journalism.

"Its probably fair to say that we were for the Bush Doctrine before there was a Bush Doctrine."

Carlson was fond of listing people he deemed intellectual inferiors.
