Tucker Carlson has had shows on PBS, CNN and MSNBC. All were so successful that not a single one is currently on the air. And how can we forget his stint on ABC's Dancing With The Stars?
Perhaps that is why he’s attempting a one-sided feud Keith Olbermann. He just couldn’t stomach the fact that someone could make a show work on his former network home.
The more likely scenario is that he’s looking for controversy to draw eyeballs to his next failed endeavor -- The Daily Caller, his factually challenged, misinformation pushing website.
Huffington Post notes:
Tucker Carlson started a feud with Keith Olbermann last month when he purchased KeithOlbermann.com and went on record dissing his former MSNBC colleague.
Now he denies the very existence of a feud, though in doing so again laid into Olbermann, who he previously described as the most disliked person at MSNBC.
"I feel sorry for Keith," Carlson told Mediabistro. "What a sad old guy he is, a prisoner of his many phobias. I'm not feuding with him at all, as I tried to explain when I emailed him the other day from my new account, Keith [at] keitholbermann.com. He never responded. I hope he's okay."
By the way, TuckerCarlsonsNextFailedEndeavor.com is still available. Maybe I’ll register the url so Tucker has a way to contact me.
Tucker's main blogger, a guy named Sean who, for some reason, goes by the name Jim Treacher, is really bad. He's the guy who assumed, based upon bad info, that a State Dept SUV, possibly carrying Hillary Clinton, hit him on purpose, and then left the scene of the accident.
Of course, it wasn't a State Dept SUV, it wasn't carrying anyone important, it hit him because he was crossing outside of the crosswalk, and the driver of the SUV was among the first people to reach Treacher. He didn't leave the scene, and provided all the necessary info to the cops.
Treacher still won't acknowledge his role in the event, and when asked about the jaywalking ticket he got, he clams up and won't say a thing besides that he'll tell people when it's all over.
But he LOVES showing off the bad scar he has on his knee/leg from the bad injury he got when he was hit by the car. He's not shy about trolling for sympathy - he'll use his injury for attention, but he won't cop to the responsibility he held for his errors in crossing the street.
Everything about the site should be embarrassing to anyone associated with it.
And like George Carlin said: "F--k Tucker. Tucker sucks."
