I still love when Putin just drops his Kompromot on Tucker right on his head during the interview. "We know you tried to join the CIA and we know they wouldn't take you :)"
I am convinced that the whole 'sexual abuse' thing is very common in upper echelons and make for a convenient excuse to take down someone now towing the line.
I almost always look for 'root cause' when I hear a sexual abuse scandle taking down someone in power.
I wish people would shut up about it. It's gotten to the point where normal peers can hardly even talk about sex without being afraid of getting in trouble.
Flirting with coworkers is fine, natural even. Calm down or become a shut in and leave the rest of us alone.
I go to work to work, not to hear about other people’s sex lives. Save that kind of talk for your friends, or talk to your mom about it, but don’t involve me. I shouldn’t have to hear about it just because we both work on the same widget.
By the way, Carlson did a lot more than flirt. He allegedly retaliated against an employee for rejecting his advances. That’s horrible.
I agree it is horrible but the point I am making is this type of stuff is more common than we'd think. So almost anyone with power would have some 'skeletons in the closet'.
think about it, we lost al franken as senator but still have DJT as president (& many more if you think DJT is unstoppable).
Carlson is essentially a performer. He has publicly said so many contradictory things I'm not sure why it matters what he thinks at any given point in time.
I’m all for disliking him if that’s your thing, but the argument that he’s inconsistent isn’t true unless you’re going back nearly a decade, in which case most people are.
Did he say something different after the $787 million judgement? Because the whole reason that judgement came down is because Murdoch was fine with what Carlson was saying.
Based on the timing of the comments they would not have been able to edit their comment at the time yours was posted, nor even at the time they posted the one you replied to (edit: nor even at the time they were corrected). There is a 2-hour window for editing comments.
It's also really obnoxious to demand that strangers do things to fit your sensibilities. I get the feeling they didn't want to say anything about it because they would have used less friendly words than "obnoxious", which is already not particularly friendly.
Interestingly, I would have said that narrow mouth cans were available well into the 2000s in Australia. I distinctly remember seeing the first wide mouth cans replacing them. It's possible that because I remember them being introduced that they feel much newer than they are, though.
Does anyone know what this is referring to?
