      Tucker Carlson Made Racist And Misogynist Remarks In Newly Surfaced Audio. He's Refusing To Apologize.


      Women are "like dogs," Iraqis are "primitive monkeys," and Obama wouldn't have been president if he were white, the Fox News host said.
      ww.buzzfeednews.com/article/briannasacks/tucker-carlson-controversy-racist-women-clips.

      Fox News host Tucker Carlson refused to apologize Monday night after a slew of newly surfaced racist, anti-immigrant, and misogynous remarks he made years ago on a radio show were published, arguing that doing so would make him another casualty of the "great American outrage machine."

      On Sunday, Media Matters, a progressive media watchdog group that frequently calls out Fox, published a collection of audio clips from an incendiary radio show, Bubba the Love Sponge, in which Carlson would call in weekly from 2006 to 2011 and try and shock the "shock jock" hosts by making offensive and crude comments about women, immigrants, the Obama family, and a host of other things.

      Carlson frequently demeaned immigrants and, in one 2006 clip, even lauded the idea of having a presidential candidate who owned being a "racist" and ran on the promise to protect the US against "Muslim lunatics."

      "'It's these lunatic Muslims who are behaving like animals, and I'm going to kill as many of them as I can if you elect me.' If a Democrat were to say that, he would be elected king, OK?" Carlson said.

      At times, host Bubba the Love Sponge challenged Carlson on some of his more ridiculous and lewd remarks, but often he and the various co-hosts would play along and encourage him.

      In one segment from October 2008, the conservative personality called Iraq "a crappy place filled with a bunch of, you know, semiliterate primitive monkeys," which is why it "wasn't worth invading." Two years earlier, he told the hosts that Iraqis should "just shut the fuck up and obey us."

        Again, it was about Tucker... And calling Iraqis semiliterate primitive monkeys is like calling you a semiliterate primitive monkey - true but not necessarily racist.

          That is not all he said, but nonetheless racial and ethnic negative generalization is racism in double spades by definition.

          Selective citation makes your case even worse, and part of the flock.

            The point is there was nothing racist about his remarks, crude, yes, but he did not belittle a race.

              You are conveniently and selectively ignoring ALL Tucker has said, and demonstrated that you are in the same flock.

                But he did not single out a race, if I say that Texans are semiliterate primitive monkeys that is not a racial group. There are different ethnic groups in Texas as well as in Iraq....

                    Padding. I notice that in long lists people will try to slip in some weak or nonsensical "evidence" to make their case look enormous. It backfires when this junk is highlighted, making the rest of the list suspect.

                      It never was claimed he was. That was not the point of the determination that he is a racist. He is a leader through FOX journalism as part of the Trump flock

                        Your dodging and being selective of the clear and specific extreme racism of Tucker. His words and no apologies speak for themselves. Such vocabulary is specifically the language of racists by definition.

                        The sources and Tucker's words, and your support speak volumes of the flock. You asked for evidence, and I provided that evidence in Tucker's own words.

                          I don't know much about him aside from some libertarian views, and those are unaffected.

                              Again I go by the definition in the English language, and not your dodge attempt to justify your agenda. You have not acknowledged that is all Tucker said. Still waiting . . .

                                Iraqi is not a race. Nor is it an ethnicity. Just like New Yorker is not a race or ethnicity. People like you have caused the term racism to be so diluted as to be absolutely useless.
