TUCKER CARLSON (HOST): I always think to myself, if you know, it's a long day or whatever, I think my job is hard. We always think our jobs are hard. Can you imagine running Fox News? The amount of pressure, the people who run this company are under every single day from institutions across our society to stop that, don't say that, rein them in, and they push back every single time. I mean, it is just an astounding feat, they never get any credit for it, I hate sucking up, I'm not sucking up to my bosses, I am telling the truth these people are really brave for real.
JEANINE PIRRO (GUEST): Yep for real. Because cancel culture and what they would do, they would have you and me off the air in three seconds if they could--
CARLSON: In jail.
PIRRO: The left, I mean, they can't deal with us and yet we are talking about things that America is interested in hearing. I mean, the proof is in the pudding and the fact that we have a structure that Suzanne Scott and Lachlan Murdoch, and everyone is supportive of us, is unbelievable. It's the best job around.
