Tucker Carlson Is Public Enemy #1 Because He Challenges Real Power

• https://www.thedailybell.com, By Ben Bartee

Wave after wave of cancellation campaigns has attempted to oust Carlson from his position as the most popular cable news host. The left has levied every accusation of an ism imaginable. He's been smeared alternately as a closet white supremacist, a transphobe and a Russian agent – the works.

Rule of thumb: if a public figure is accused of the above trifecta of bigotry, whether right or left, Glenn Greenwald or Carlson, they've struck a nerve with the corporate state.

Why throw the kitchen sink at this one figure?

Tucker gives a platform to dissident, truly marginalized voices (as opposed to "marginalized" voices in the social justice sense).

Critics often ask the leftist likes of Glenn Greenwald and Jimmy Dore why they appear on Carlson's show. The answers they give are consistently twofold:

Carlson offers a chance to reach a broader audience outside of their insular ideological ecosystems

Carlson hosts the only corporate media show that will invite them on

The only scenario in which MSNBC or CNN, for instance, would even consider granting Greenwald airtime in 2022 would be to lambaste him as a Russian agent or Trump apologist. They know they couldn't win that fight, though, so they choose to ignore him.
