Media Matters for America published a new video with clips of the Fox News host using racist and homophobic language
Fox News host Tucker Carlson speaks at Politicon at the Los Angeles Convention Center on Oct. 21, 2018.
In another instance, Carlson described Iraq is a “crappy place filled with a bunch of, you know, semiliterate primitive monkeys,” adding, “That’s why it wasn’t worth invading.” In a 2006 segment on the show, Carlson said he had “zero sympathy” for the Iraqi people and their culture because they “don’t use toilet paper or forks.”A co-host on the show replied: “They’re animals, dude. They are.”
In March 2006, Carlson spoke about his desire for a presidential candidate to blame the “lunatic Muslims who are behaving like animals.” That candidate would be “elected king” if they vowed to “kill as many of them as [they] can,” Carlson added.“How is he black, for one thing? He has one white parent, one black parent,” he said in 2006. Two years later, he added, “I don’t know how black he is, but I’m sure he’s a good basketball player — he says he is, anyway.
“The great American outrage machine is a remarkable thing,” he said, in front of title cards that read “THE MOB” and “CRACKDOWN ON DISSENT.”“One day you’re having dinner with your family imagining everything is fine, the next your phone is exploding with calls from reporters,” Carlson said.
