Tucker Carlson defends immigration comments

Fox News host Tucker Carlson on Monday night defended his comments about immigration that have caused multiple companies to pull advertisements from his show.

Carlson has been facing criticism over his remark last week that immigration makes the U.S. "poorer and dirtier and more divided."

"The left would very much like you to stop talking and thinking about bad decisions they’ve made over the years," Carlson said at the beginning of his show on Monday. “'Shut up,' they’re screaming, including to this show."

"Obviously, we won’t and you shouldn’t either," Carlson said.
