Tuckered out: Tucker Carlson's MSBNC show is canceled. No one notices. Or cares
In the "better late than never" category, it looks like the axe has fallen on the Tucker Carlson show on MSNBC. It wasn't his hysterical overreaction to the idea of being transgendered, or even his glee at recounting the story of his assault of a gay man who "bothered" him in a restroom. Those things were perfectly acceptable to MSNBC, but what they could not abide were low ratings.
The thought of the two of them prowling the halls of MSNBC like a lunatic Batman & Robin must be giving Keith Olbermann fits. There's no word yet on who Tucker's replacement will be, but hopefully the network will finally realize that trying to imitate Fox News is a lost cause. You can watch the clip of Tucker's potty problem after the jump, but I still can't decide if he's exaggerating about the whole thing. What do you think? Submitted by on Mon, 2008-03-10 13:12. |

At least some good news
Despite that fact he'll still be popping up, it's nice to know his show's in the crapper.

I'm not surprised nor am I disappointed. I hope they give Pat Buchanan and Rachel Maddow a show together. That would be interesting. They both come from political extremes and give a surprisingly intelligent spin on issues. It would be MSNBC's version of Hannity & Colmes. Btw, Keith Olberman's bias towards Obama is as obvious and disturbing as his hatred of Bill O'Reilly.

Tucker Carlson is the femiphobe who claims to reflexively cross his knees anytime Hillary Clinton walks into a room (yeah, like he's got anything to worry about). He's a smarmy little ass-wipe who will do or say anything to please his puppet masters at MSNBC. He's been giving journalists (and bow-ties) a bad name for long enough. If he ends up doing a lounge act with Lizard O'Reilly, so be it, but his fifteen minutes of punditry/fame are mercifully up.
