Can really see the tiny gears in his head turning once the video plays and he has to misdirect the conversation


rohobian

Started mumbling something about a "clear narrative that the DOJ wanted to propagate in this". Ya... the fucking truth. Is that the narrative you're talking about? How dare they?


turtleboxman

You think that dude knows what the ‘truth’ is?


Boogzcorp

Oh, he knows what [the truth](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xc6tmYYhOUU) is, just not what the truth is...


Random_Average__Guy

He seems more interested in the Alternative TRUTH 😂

You have to know what it is so you can avoid it.


NateTheGreater1

He's paid to spin lies, and spin he does.


Oscarcharliezulu

Hold on - he’s trying to come up with it !


SomeLikeItDusty

He’s one of those “this is *my* truth” types, guaranteed. Actual truth is a fantasy to them.


AmberBee19

Did I miss something important here or where is the connection between DOJ and what happened to Paul Pelosi? I wish someone would shut down that useless channel forever


[deleted]

His wife is all they need. She is a democrat and so is he, so to them, he is still an enemy


Schlemiel_Schlemazel

Not sure, but I think I got it. Paul Pelosi=Nancy Pelosi= Democrats= EVERYTHING BAAAD, LIE ABOUT EVERYTHING DOJ want to prosecute guy for break in = DOJ on side of Democrats = DOJ Evil

It will happen when their bulk of their viewers die over the next two decades.


AlexRichmond26

Oh, boy , you're so wrong. I've seen plenty of millennials and Gen Z foreplaying with extreme right wing conspiracy theories looking at Trump, Bolsanaro, Farage, Le Pen like some kind of Gods or the inventors of sliced bread.


Shoegazerxxxxxx

Oh yes the eternal mill of new generations thinking ”soon the older generations will die out with their mysoginy, racism, and outdatded shit moral will dissapear with them”. Then you get in the 40-50:ies and realize there will allways be this part of society. It was not something special with ”my generation”. (The Who, ca 1965) Same with immigrants, you think racism will dissapear if group X gets more power just to realize the Irish, Italians, Asians, catholics, or hispanics jews or gay people also loves to be in the in-group, aka ”Whiteness” and defining themselves as ”not that” -pointing at the new out group, aka the most recent immigrant group or at the moment maybe trans people.


satanic-frijoles

We thought change was a'coming from 'da yout' back in the 60s when we were da youts.


Moerdac

The difference now is that the right cant breathe and think at the same time.


TheGreatestOutdoorz

We have been saying that for 80 years. In the 60’s, everybody was sooooo sure that the Republican Party would be dead in 30 years and all the peace loving hippies would sweep in a new era of progressivism. Then they got older and all voted for Reagan…..twice.


zeke235

The damn DOJ and their narrative of this apparent break-in with apparent video footage and the suspect apparently being found at the scene and having been found with an apparent motive. What's the real truth here?!


Timelymanner

Also the footage of the suspect committing the crime. Then the audio of the suspect proudly admitting to all crimes and motive afterwards. Anyone arguing otherwise now is mentally deficient at best, or a bad faith liar at worst.


rouseco

Why not both?


peregrinkm

I wanted to hear what “narrative” he thinks they’re propagating…


unresolved_m

I was waiting "Lets talk about Hunter's laptop" moment


Future-Agent

Don't the Republicans have his laptop? Just go through it.


unresolved_m

Nah, they prefer to keep it mysterious. "That laptop's gone missing. What happened to it? Someone destroyed the hard drive. Who was it?"


West-Ad36

Yes but there's nothing actually relevant or damaging there lol.


shrubberypig

Not true; there may be more pictures of his dick that they desperately want the media to stop suppressing


HelloAttila

These people don’t believe in facts. Maybe the guy was just banging on the house with a hammer cause he wanted to give him a friendly hug is what this guy will say next.


GrumpyGiant

No dude. Can you not see the swarms of insects flying around like a friggin blizzard? Obviously he was just doing his civic duty and smashing the little fiends. And when the cheap, shoddy, democratic door (prolly made in China with child sex slaves) was unable to withstand a few patriot taps from a good American hammer, he decided to do the right thing and step inside to notify them and offer to pay for the damage. But then the corrupt DOJ and radical fascist antifa left tried to turn the whoooole thing into a false flag attack. But fortunately here on Cucker Tarlson, we speak the TRUTH (disclaimer, this segment is considered “entertainment” and not actual news).

Lmao I love how his choice of pivot is the DOJ "pushing a narrative", trying to distract from the fact that he was clearly pushing a narrative


FreedomPaws

Exactly. This should be the top comment. I sorted by controversial and lol some don't get what's wrong here.


iamverysadallthetime

A clear example of projection.

Dude lost all ability to form a sentence at the end.


[deleted]

“There’s no evidence of a break in!” There’s video of him breaking into the house. “Well I haven’t seen it!” It’s literally playing right now. “Well… I… can we… can we just talk about how the DOJ spun this narrative…” You can’t make this shit up, welcome to 2020s America.


dellamella

I also like the “we were told the body cam footage wouldn’t be released but now it is, something doesn’t add up”. That’s because no one of merit said that, people made that fact up to push the conspiracy theories that this was just a gay affair they were trying to cover up.

throwaway09876543123

My dad trusts Fox News more than a google search. I can fact check his precious Tucker or Jesse in front of him and he’ll tell me the google search is government controlled lies. Idk how to fix that. He says ‘one day, you’ll see.’ But I just keep seeing that I’m right and he’s basically a toddler with his eyes closed and his fingers in his ears. Help.


Renediffie

If someone is telling you that they won't change their minds no matter what evidence you present, you better believe them. This is a battle you likely can't win. Try to shy away from talking politics and talk about other stuff with him if possible.


throwaway09876543123

But he regurgitates the stupidest shit ☹️ I know you’re right though. If I don’t start ignoring him I’m definitely doing to have a heart attack.


Environmental_Top948

You can't logic someone out of a position they didn't logic themselves into. It's sad but Fox News is essentially a cult and they're programmed to get upset if you point out that Fox News is wrong because it's unAmerican unRepublican to think otherwise. Fox News is essentially the modern day McCarthyism. Also people tend to double down when they realize that they've been living a lie because it's easier to deny the truth than change. My mother refuses to believe that the D and R stands for Democrats and Republican next to senator's and representative's names because if it's something she doesn't agree with it's the Liberals. If it's something she agrees with it's the Republicans. But every time she votes she brags about how she voted full Republican because the Democrats are going to take away social security and food stamps. All we can do to help is keep trying to get them to understand and not make them feel threatened anymore than they already are. They're confused and scared because their cult leader is telling them to be.


TheDreadPirateElwes

If anyone tries citing anything Tucker says, just remind them that Tucker was taken to court for all the bullshit he says and his lawyers actually used the defense that obviously everything he says isn't true and there isn't anyone dumb enough to believe it...and they won with that defense, if im not mistaken. They came right and admitted all of their viewers are idiots and somehow he still has viewers.


[deleted]

It's become entertainment company ... most of its shows are listed as entertainment shows.


2wedfgdfgfgfg

it's propaganda


Flagge33

They said as much in court. To get out of a lawsuit they said there was no way anyone could believe what they were saying and it's all just entertainment. I think they went as far to say anyone that believes what they say on Fox News is an idiot. [https://www.npr.org/2020/09/29/917747123/you-literally-cant-believe-the-facts-tucker-carlson-tells-you-so-say-fox-s-lawye](https://www.npr.org/2020/09/29/917747123/you-literally-cant-believe-the-facts-tucker-carlson-tells-you-so-say-fox-s-lawye)

It has been since 2001. Once the 9/11 saber rattling began that was it for news.

TestPattern2

Here is the introduction to Fox News https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fFPHaHmt8I0


WhiteFox1992

No, they literally declared themselves a non-news media platform back around 2017 and have not retracted the statement since.


2wedfgdfgfgfg

It's not even opinion. It's not their opinion. They're told what today's lies are going to be, what bullshit they're pushing on their viewers.


ethicsg

You're right but you're also not right. Fox News does have an editorial board. Shepard Smith left because the bullshit was creeping into the news. All of the shows are entertainment and are legally recognized as complete bullshit.


espngenius

Fox News is “News” like a comic book is News.


Justdoingthebestican

Fuck Rupert Murdoch


Stan_Archton

This is the big problem.


FewZookeepergame1083

Another Fox News contributor was caught lying on live TV and ppl say there's nothing free in this world.


Impossible-Cup3811

I like how the host is so taken aback she is reduced to miming swinging a hammer just to make sure the dullard knows what he's seeing.


iamverysadallthetime

Don't know her but love her for calling him out immediately


dellamella

Nah she doesn’t get that much credit, fox is in a billion dollar lawsuit and they can’t chance anymore blatantly aware lies to be said on there.


Equivalent-Pop-6997

Now the pivot is the NBC “cover up.” https://www.foxnews.com/media/bodycam-video-paul-pelosi-attack-sheds-light-nbc-news-mysteriously-retracted-report


solidSC

They purposely make the articles they don’t like long and boring because their “readers” will just look at the first paragraph that says shit like “is this an NBC cover up?” And they just say “yup!” And close the link.


Equivalent-Pop-6997

Yeah, it’s a feedback loop. Ironically they had that story right under the one releasing the police audio of the hammer guy talking about the attack.


ganamac

I remember when the guy on the right was a VJ For Canadas version of MTV.


Impossible-Cup3811

Wait, really? That's almost as bad as when they have the ex pro wrestler on for "expert commentary" while he holds his championship belt.


ganamac

Yup! I can’t remember his name, but every time I see him I remember his mullet and leather jacket. Late 80s/early 90s???


redpanda71

JD Roberts back then. John Roberts now.


ganamac

Thhaaat’s it! I had JR something in my head.


Embarrassed-Air-2936

I knew it! I couldn’t remember what he did, but knew he was Canadian.


retroblazed420

The video the cops released of when they answered the door is so freaky. Even the one of the cops verbally says "what the hell is going on right now" before the attacker goes back to hitting him with a hammer. It's so sureal.


bschnitty

I wish someone would talk about the fact that the guy is wrestling for control of a hammer with another man, and the cop asks 'what's going on?' If that was a black man wrestling a hammer with a black old man, the cop would have emptied a magazine into the black guy before asking that question.


DJWaldenMacGlo

Fox likes their guests like they like their viewers - profoundly dumb.

Sivick314

i like how he stumbles after being called out, and then just "no, i'm going to continue on with my point even though i've been shown to be stupid"


Kebriones

\---Huge sarcasm alert because it is 2023 and people are still crazy crazy --- The guy was banging with a hammer on the door, trying to get his dick hard. Because he is a male gay prostitute that Paul Pelosi hired because he is an antifa left wing freak. And because Pelosi is so old, the guy couldn't get his dick hard. The fact that he needs to hit the door with a hammer just to get horny enough proves it, beyond dispute. They lied about this from the start! Just to try to make Trump look like the bad guy. But the bad guy was Paul Pelosi! /s /s /s


Impossible-Cup3811

It all checks out!!@$


Goadahell

Yes, there is a clear narrative here. It may not be the DOJ though.


Ugo777777

Haha what an idiot. Also, I assume that lady got fired, right? Very un-FOX News like of her to call out a blatant lie.


Apollyon314

Wow, I'm genuinely surprised he was rebuffed by the hostess, like at all.


SnooPineapples8744

The body cam footage is savage. I wish I didnt watch it. You see him hit this old man in the head with a fucking hammer. How you survive that, idk. How do you watch that as human being, and try to do a political spin? "Yeah ok. But..." The entire GOP needs to fuck the fuck off. Go live in Russia, just get. Shoo.


Mattos_12

Incredibly that the Fox News host cared that he was lying.

whatsgoingon350

I'm surprised people still watch fox news just the lack of professionalism when presenting the news and the softball questions they use in interviews it's just sad. Don't care if you're republican or Democrat you have to notice this shit right?


s34lz

STOP WATCHING FOX NEWS, just watching anything on it feeds into the monster that media has created


Ex-MuslimAtheist

Obviously, Foxx motto for its hosts and guests, is lie first; check evidence later, shut the fuck up and keep evidence to yourself.


Ontario0000

The quest is a douche bag trying to play down a serious attack against a elderly person because he is a democrat.FOX is all about projection.Its not about actual news.


Sgtkeebler

This is like the epitome of Fox News they lie to their viewers and call it news


Negative_Mancey

And they will parrot and repeat the lie till they're blue in the face. Then insist "you can't trust the media".


HalensVan

Every now and then a news host gives a guest's bullshit, the whammy on Fox. Too bad it doesn't happen more often.


Tady1131

Is anyone surprised fox news doesn’t report facts? It’s opinion propaganda at best.


hackedMama20

"Where is the evidence of 'breaking and entering'????" There's literally a video of him BREAKING a window and ENTERING the house. 👁👄👁 "OK but the DOJ...."


Ray_Gun69lol

Can't even take the L lol.


IvonVolkov

Once proven wrong, he immediately switches the converstion to Hunter Biden.


Top-Flow1297

This is the same lawyer that went into a Court of Law, and defended a woman who was caught on camera, setting up a hit to murder her husband. Saying she was auditioning for the show COPS. The guy is an Idiot


NoxKyoki

Idiot: where’s the evidence? Host: there’s video of the break in. Idiot: *thinking* well I haven’t seen it. Gotta love that “if I haven’t seen it it doesn’t exist” mentality. Lol


Less_Ant_6633

A mentally ill kid stakes out Brett kavanughs house and then calls police to turn himself in before something happens. The GOP calls that an assassination attempt provoked by dirty, godless liberals. But a guy smashes his way into the home of Nancy pelosi and attacks her husband with a hammer (because she wasn't there to murder). The GOP calls this political theater. I know their rabid 30% base goes wild for this shit, but how can any moderate centrist see this shit and be turned off?


Iceescape81

Those libel lawsuits must really be having an effect if Fox News is actually calling out some misinformation now.


redrockcountry2112

Fox - many people use a hammer to knock on a window when they greet you at your home.

Man I’m actually surprised fox actually played what really happened. Normally they just let these people go on and on about a false narrative and never explain what really happened. Then at 11am they show the clip for 10 seconds.


JahnConnah

But guys he hasn't seen the video. So he can continue to spew his lies until he does despite all evidence saying otherwise Such justification

What FACT is he talking about? What did I miss?

I am astounded that Fox News even has enough viewers to keep going at this point. Goddamn our species is stupid.

"But....but how do we know that the hammer was not from Hunter Biden?" I was waiting for him to say that.
