Shop NowThe highest-rated host in cable news, Tucker Carlson, posted a humorous tweet on Sunday mocking The New York Times’ hit piece about him. The article about Carlson is part of a horrid, four-part series titled “American Nationalist”, which sounds somewhat silly especially if the goal is to pin the bad label on Carlson.
Thankfully though, it appears that Carlson is getting the last laugh after the hateful and left-wing New York Times thought publishing a 20,000 word piece on the host would ruin his reputation in response.
The now-viral tweet shows a photo of Carson himself laughing to himself while displaying the Times’ “bombshell” front-page news story about him. This picture is worth a thousand words, as you can almost hear him chuckling aloud.

Contrary to their goal, The Time’s constant attacks on conservatives and Pro-Trump personalities has caused detrimental harm to its credibility in the recent years, much like numerous other left-wing bully media outlets have attempted to do.
Here’s what former Florida Congressman Trey Radel tweeted Sunday:
“Maybe 15-20 years ago, someone smeared like this by the NYT would’ve had their career & life destroyed.”
“Today, it’s a badge of honor because the Times’ staff has so clearly shown their job is to be PR foot soldiers and character assassins for democrats. What a pathetic rag.”

Newsweek’s deputy opinion editor, Batya Ungar-Sargon, also blasted the Times’ hypocrisy in attacking Carlson for championing the working class and espousing views that “any Democrat would have proudly endorsed 15 years ago.”
She said in a tweet:
” But if you’re part of the ruling class like the NYT, you don’t want anyone exposing the vast chasm separating you from the people you pretend to represent. So having uncovered that Tucker talks endlessly about the class divide, they color caring about inequality as ‘racism.'”

Ungar-Sargon added:
“Legacy media used to use its massive resources to expose government corruption; now they use them to protect the administration from embarrassment and criticism, to expose anonymous Twitter accounts, to smear the competition as racists if they dare expose the class divide.”

Folks online also criticized the Times, saying it deserves to be scorned — not only by Carlson but by the public at large.
This is just so freakin’ spectacular. The @nytimes has so jumped the shark that all there’s left to do is laugh at it. It’s trash propaganda and everyone knows it.
Their hit pieces not only don’t work, but now just aid in their own destruction.
Mock ’em and move on! https://t.co/25oDeAb7hV

Ironically, Carlson has the most powerful platform in cable news and is watched by more Democrats than CNN or MSNBC, so the criticism means nothing at all to him.
Tucker Carlson is the most popular cable news host among Democrats aged 25-54. Everything the corporate liberal media writes about his show is designed to conceal this reality in order to preserve their status and relevance among a rapidly dwindling audience of insulated elites.

Western Journal commented:
The left loves to claim that Fox News viewers are older in a bid to discredit the audience as out of touch and passé. In reality, Carlson’s show draws more Democrats in the key demographic (ages 24-54) than MSNBC star Rachel Maddow.
No wonder he’s laughing.
