Tucker Carlson refuses to apologize for misogynistic comments in unearthed audio by realchriswilson
During call-ins to a radio show years ago, now-Fox News host Tucker Carlson defended a convicted sex criminal and made a series of misogynistic comments for which he has refused to apologize.
After the audio emerged Sunday, Carlson declined to apologize for any of the comments and invited anyone who had an issue to appear on his show. His claim that the tapes were “naughty” downplays his comments about underage girls. In 2006, Carlson attempted to argue that he didn’t trust all of the government’s charges against Jeffs, didn’t believe he belonged on the Most Wanted List, and that “arranging a marriage between a 16-year-old and a 27-year-old is not the same as pulling a stranger off the street and raping her.”
“I should make the laws around here, and Michael Vick would have been executed, and Warren Jeffs would be out on the street,” said Carlson, referring to the former NFL quarterback’s conviction for running a dogfighting ring. In a 2006 appearance, Carlson joked that a 13-year-old boy who was said to have had sex with his teacher 28 times in one week deserved “a Presidential Medal of Freedom.”
