You Can't Get More Petty Than That...
When news came down that the plug was being pulled at CNN+ the gang over at Fox News were happy to start dancing on the grave of the dead streaming service.
While taking glee in seeing your opponent stumble is all part of this business, no one at Fox News showed their pettiness more than Tucker Carlson.
While talking about the very short-lived CNN+, the lower third on Carlson’s said “The Big CNN Flop.” That was fine and that is what happened.
But, it was the cutline that show the petty Carlson, which read, “Nobody signed up to watch Mike Wallace’s son.”
Mike Wallace’s son is Chris Wallace who spent years bringing some credibility to Fox News with his tough but fair interviews.
Wallace was one of the few real Journalists at FNC and a former co-worker of Tucker Carlson.
Obviously, Carlson is jealous of the fact that Chris Wallace is the Journalist that Tucker Carlson always wanted to be, but just wasn’t able to pull it off and head to settle for being a bobblehead.
The fact that Carlson showed so little respect for Chris Wallace is an embarrassment to the network as a whole.
It really does show that when you think Tucker Carlson can’t get any more shallow, he drains just a bit more water out of the pool.
