Numerous overlapping boycotts over Tucker Carlson's espousal of inflammatory and offensive comments have left the host's show with a diminishing number of advertisers.
Since the debut of TV host Tucker Carlson’s nightly Fox News series, Tucker Carlson Tonight – described by the network as an “hour of spirited debate and powerful reporting” – has increasingly focused on menacing stories about immigrants and outrage over political correctness.
In one segment, Carlson can be heard making offensive remarks about child rape and women. Later, Media Matters released another clip of Carlson saying Iraq is filled with “semi-illiterate monkeys.” Carlson addressed the clips in a statement posted to Twitter, where he condemned Media Matters and encouraged Americans to watch his show to better understand his opinions."Media Matters caught me saying something naughty on a radio show more than a decade ago,” the host wrote. “Rather than express the usual ritual contrition, how about this: I’m on television every weeknight live for an hour. If you want to know what I think, you can watch.
