Media Matters are always so desperate in their effort to pull up dirt on conservatives.
However, their effort to demonize Tucker with “leaks” of what he said behind the scenes at Fox may be one of their funniest (and failed) efforts yet. Now we have to start with the fact that it’s Media Matters, so we have to doubt everything about it. Yet, they still have the opposite effect of making Media Matters look silly, and Tucker look even better.
For example, here he is criticizing Fox for how hard they make it to find and access Fox Nation. He’s not criticizing the program content, he’s criticizing the delivery because Americans can’t find it.

He’s right and he’s being honest about it. So? What big secret does Media Matters think that proves? That people may try to improve the delivery of their product and are frustrated when it could be better? Oh, right, Democrats don’t seem to know what hard work and delivering a good product means. That video has gotten more than 4.7 million views with most people saying “There’s no there there” and/or saying it makes them like Carlson all the more.
He had three other videos and again I’m not sure what he thought any of them showed besides Tucker being a normal down-to-earth adult.
Here he is having a conversation with Piers Morgan about interviewing with him.
1. Prepping for an interview with Piers Morgan, Carlson tells the host, ” If we’re going to talk about sex, I’d love to hit some of the fine points of technique”
Morgan replies, “We can certainly talk about your sexual technique, especially after your tanning testicles last week” pic.twitter.com/q41FGWujn8

Oh, my, how horrifying. Not.
Then there’s this one where he refers to someone’s girlfriend who is not there as “yummy” but then mocks Media Matters and tells them “to go f**k themselves” if they think that’s something.
2. After describing an unnamed woman to someone off camera as “yummy,” Carlson says, “just kidding, in case this is being pulled off the bird… Hey, Media Matters for America, go fuck yourself!” pic.twitter.com/xxefGaW9SX

That’s pretty hilarious, he’s prescient and funny as hell. Not to mention right on the money when it comes to Media Matters.
Then the third one, he was joking about his appearance and saying he could never truly assess it, he had to wait for his “post-menopausal fans” to weigh in and tell him. Then he ended with a joke about Bill O’Reilly using his meltdown line, “F**k it, we’ll do it live!”

Again, their calling that an attack on women says more about Media Matters’ twisted thoughts than anything else. And “post-menopausal women” weighed in saying they didn’t see anything wrong with that.
Oh the horror , just kidding. Who the hell even cares . It’s nothing my own hubby wouldn’t say.
Signed a post menopausal woman

So great job, Media Matters! You made more women express their appreciation for Tucker Carlson. And you did it all without Tucker even hiring you!
But it just shows again, how little they have on him, if this is the stuff they are pulling out. One might have to wonder how they got these “leaks” and what the person who leaked them was thinking if they were trying to hurt Carlson. Fox did not help themselves with their move to part ways with Tucker, their ratings are plummeting as we’ve reported. But if this was a Fox person looking to get back at Tucker, it didn’t work.
