Margaret Thatcher says in her memoirs: "Whenever the Soviet media reported that scientists had found that some food--sausage, say--was bad for your health, the ordinary Russians reacted immediately by telling each other: "So they're running out of sausage."

Also in TNR this week: "Tucker Carlson Is Fading Away"

Subhed: "The former Fox News host has his own 'network' now. But recapturing his Fox News relevance won’t be easy."

https://newrepublic.com/article/177509/tucker-carlson-streaming-service-fox

For example?

"Less than a year after his exit from Fox News, Carlson still has a large following, but he lacks the power and influence he had when he still had his perch in the mainstream media. Without the imprimatur of Fox News, Carlson has become just another fish in a very crowded pond. Far from auguring a new moment in conservative media, this new streaming service only underlines just how far Carlson’s star has fallen since he he fell from Fox’s good graces.

"It’s not entirely clear what the Tucker Carlson Network will look like. For now, the streaming service—which costs $9 a month, more than ad-supported subscriptions for Hulu, Disney+, and Netflix—will offer the show Carlson has been hosting on X (formerly Twitter), which has featured a fairly predictable slate of guests, including Trump, Steve Bannon, and Marjorie Taylor Greene; and more Carlson-centric hangers-on, such as kickboxer and accused sex trafficker Andrew Tate and weirdo Argentine President-elect Javier Milei."

He's very marginal, now, and features weird guests like....Javier Milei.

You can tell a journalist has become completely irrelevant, you see, by the fact that he can immediately land long-form interviews with newly elected heads of state.

Gaslight of all gaslights 😂.

I subscribed to Fox Nation only because of Tucker and cancelled it the minute they parted ways.

Seems to me this writer and TNR are wish casting for their barking seals.

Speaking of promoting weirdos, what’s the name of the multitasker who both gets interviewed and whacks off at the same time that CNN pushes out?

I just read ‘Plandemic’ has been seen by over a BILLION people!! My wife was upset at one point. All her friends watch CNN CBC etc. Mainstream. She said ‘we aren’t getting into the MSM so the average person.....’. etc etc. I said ‘the MSM is now fringe. Mainstream is alternative. Joe Rogan gets 10 million people watching an interview for three hours!! Meanwhile CNN gets 54,000 people for many of their shows.’ The Mainstream is dead. I doubt my three sons ever would even consider watching TV news. With the possible exception of watching an election.

It was mostly peaceful plagiarism. Also, she stole from white people at times. This is in actuality ‘decolonializing the truth’.

... and the POC from whom she allegedly misappropriated her entire thesis from is a known white supremacist -- she has acutally been on Tucker Carlson and Fox News! -- therefore her ideas are not worth mentioning. They needed to be espoused by the glorious Dr. Gay.

Do we really - as white people - have the right to ‘whitesplain’ our values onto POC? If she stole from other POCs perhaps that is simply how they choose to live and for us to suggest this is bad is ‘moral colonialism’.

Earlier this week my husband heard on the radio that schools ignore obvious plagiarism by students of color because “white people stole all the ideas.” I thought it was funny but he assured me it wasn’t.

Because "con them out of pennies" is what they do - and who they are.

THEY could no more stop the continuous con than fish can run a marathon, or cows can fly.

I think the point of the “why pennies” question is “Why LIMIT the con to pennies?” Once your mark buys in, soak ‘em.

You sir, are obviously a right-roader and seriously guilty of wrong think! No doubt you have oppressed the working class and harbor anti-proletariat beliefs. The Head Commissar of Harvard was plagiarizing only in the name and benefit of the student cadres at Harvard, involved in the class struggle against rich exploiters of the masses.

As you are a resident of California, you will need to be questioned about your transgressions by the authorities there, who are led by the visionary Great Leader, Governor Newsom, The Great Helmsman of the West. He is all knowing, all seeing and his staff have, by osmosis, absorbed his genius. They will, in the name of the working class, discuss with you all your many shortcomings and errors, and in a year and half or so, you will, like Jack Ma of China, come to see your errors and speak only the truth, which will be given to you.

It’s so close to going “all in” but not quite. I’m waiting for the “A Few Good Men” court scene when Nicholson’s character is finally goaded into saying “you’re damn right I did!”. I think soon, and very soon,we will finally get someone to say, “you’re damn right she is a DEI hire and not based on her merit! And she deserves it... social justice...racism...equity... blah blah blah!” It’s time for the Marxists to come out of hiding and own their ideology.

“Misdemeanor”...? Hmmm, isn’t that what many J-6ers are currently sitting in jail for?

What fly-over country thinks means nothing to the Harvard elites. On the other hand, if the Harvard alum donors think plagiarism, or Jewish genocide for that matter, are significant, then the eminently distinguished scholar Gay will soon be looking for someone else’s work to copy. (But don’t hold your breath)
