Now McCarthy has to retrieve all these 44,000 hours that he screwed up by submitting to Sucker Carlson. Obviously, you will not hear a word of it from Sucker's biased broadcast to his viewers!!


Here is the letter from CREW demanding the retrieval of all this footage:

Carlson continues to host the undisputably best political commentary show on television.

You know why there are so few threads/posts here on TERB about other shows? Because practically no one watches those shows, and certainly no one cares what the hosts of those shows are saying (until one says something un-woke, like Don Lemon)!
Most people either watch the exact news (not opinions) or other TV programs not related to news. We know that Tucker Carlson and the rest of the Fox Cronies blatant lies regarding the spiel that they put out to a fundamentally very right wing audience.
That was very obvious in the Court Filings by Dominion against Fox where all the personal texts etc. proved that Fox journalists / Hosts like Tucker, Ingraham, Watters, Hannity and Pirro have no journalistic integrity......... PERIOD!!

Rupert Murdoch testified that Fox News hosts ‘endorsed’ stolen election narrative
Network owner also admitted in $1.6bn defamation lawsuit deposition that Trump’s claims were ‘damaging to everybody’

Fox is fighting back, against Dominion!!

ROTFLMAO!! Fighting back by admitting that they deliberately broadcast lies including about The Dominion Voting machines? Again, have you read the link that you posted?

Anyway, look at the actual questions posed, that Murdoch admitted to:

Hear why legal analyst thinks Fox News is facing 'very serious' legal exposure

Yes, but Chris Cuomo, is suing CNN for $125 million!!


Good luck with him trying to get that amount from CNN. This $1.6 Billion by Dominion instead will hold a lot of substance for actual defamation against their Voting Machines including these blatantly lies that have already been admitted in Court. But tell us what exactly are Cuomo's arguments in court especially as it was a real conflict of interest with his brother's defence? After all CNN have proved that they will not tolerate what Fox are admittedly permitting........ i.e. LIES!!

It is an appeal to authority fallacy, and it is a demonstration of the fallacy on at least 2 levels. One, on its primary level it purports to dismiss the truth of a proposition based solely on the person who said it and their personal characteristics (perhaps you conflate the concepts of doubt with rejection of truth?).
That is the fallacy of origins or genetic fallacy, not the appeal to authority fallacy.

On a secondary level, it implies that there is some personal characteristic or qualification, absent in the speaker of the statement, that WOULD provide AUTHORITY to establish the truth of the statement - a proposition which is patently false, given that the subject of the statement is a question of mixed opinion and fact, not fact.
Are you arguing that there is no such thing as facts or any appeal based on the factual truth of a statement is an appeal to authority and therefore wrong? (Since any arbiter of facts would have to be an authority and therefore to use them is a fallacy?)

Either way, "Tucker is saying a mix of facts and opinion, therefore dismissing him is an appeal to authority fallacy" just doesn't cohere.

Trust me, the fact I am dismissing him and even moreso I am saying that it is right to dismiss him because he is a known liar and propagandist who cannot be considered trustworthy is the Fallacy of Origins.

If you are suggesting that critical thinking is a concept that can be divorced from logic, I am not aware of that usage of the term.
Of course it can't be "divorced" from logic.
I am pointing out that people who think the formal logical fallacies are the only measure of critical thinking or that reasoned discussion of an issue requires adherence to formal logic and all arguments that are logically fallacious are wrong or bad are incorrect and in fact doing themselves a deep disservice by limiting their ability to think critically.

If you are suggesting that people make judgements on other than logical analysis, I would heartily agree, but I would say that happens far too often. Of course, sometimes a decision is required within a limited time, or must be based on limited resources. Often a decision maker simply cannot have perfect information. In those circumstances, the decision maker must try to extrapolate from the information available to conclusions which may not be supportable by strict logic. However, this reality is not any excuse for lazy, undisciplined thinking in the normal course of events.
No one ever has perfect information and only a fool thinks that strict logic defines being correct.

Rupert has admitted under oathe that most of the talking heads on the newtwork spread the big lie even after they new that it was a lie and did not believe it and all apaently in order to. profit. That makes them fruads. What doies it make the lemmings (incluidng the ones on thios board) who continue to spout the party line even after the know thay are spreading the words of frauds.

Your post simply conflates doubt with rejection of truth.

As to your definition of correctness, it is surely your own. No point arguing with that.

Well, quoting Dutch,



so hell, I can see ABRAM tanks coming dammit. I have to go look for bear spray, and buy a pair of steel-toe boots and a helmet because no way the best political pundit can be wrong!o_O🤪😂
I don't think Carlson's humour is too subtle for you, so you must think there are readers here who don't know how to interpret his presentation. I've never found it that amusing or interesting to seek an audience of stupid people here on TERB. What would be the point?
