Please allow me to say that

When I was young I always thought/fantasized that if I ran into the guy who played Eddie Haskell on Leave It To Beaver, I’d punch him in the nose. Of course it was only in jest: I knew he was an actor playing a part, but still...

But I will say that if I ever happen upon Tucker Carlson on a sidewalk I won’t strike him of course, but the stream of obscenities and invectives flowing out of my mouth would be unceasing.

That is all.

Great looking bunch but everyone a liar or a cheater or a self-absorbed bully.

Saw Walleggens in an interview as the real actor and of course he’s a lovey young actor.

"Carlson was born in San Francisco, California. He is the elder son of Richard Warner Carlson, a former Los Angeles news anchor and U.S. ambassador to the Seychelles who was also president of the Corporation for Public Broadcasting and director of Voice of America.[4] Carlson's mother is Lisa McNear Lombardi, who left the family when Carlson was 6 years old.[5][4] His stepmother is Patricia Caroline Swanson, an heiress to the Swanson frozen-food fortune; Swanson is the daughter of Gilbert Carl Swanson, granddaughter of Carl A. Swanson, and niece of Senator J. William Fulbright. Carlson's father married Swanson when Carlson was 10 years of age"

spent a lot of time with his head in the toilet. Boys like that rarely make it through without at least a snuggie pulled up over their ears. He likely ran home to mommy and she told him it was only because he was so awesome and thus, Tucker Carlson. There are so many of them.

that when bow tie boy was growing up he never left his front porch but stayed hidden under mama's dress.

He's a Rush Limbaugh wannabe.

Well Tucker says he did meet the actor who played Eddie Haskell, and Tucker lavished praise on him for being such a great role model in his formative years.

Him and Steven Miller can talk about their man-love for Trump. I get the feeling they both wanted to be like him but were too nerdy with women.

Also if you can find Charlie Brooker's Screenwipe on Youtube he has a fantastic takedown of all Fox News old personalities. Brooker is a British journalist and creator of Black Mirror TV series. I believe he called Hannity a bad parody of the 1980s movie frat boy.

they made their TV show ratings on the backs of people who loved the hyperbole. Not Bill's exact words, but it's a show folks, a really big show. Correct me if I have misspoken Mr. Press.
