An admiring biography of Tucker Carlson yields further dispiriting evidence of his influence on the American right
With his new book, Tucker, Chadwick Moore melds hagiography to dictation. For nearly 300 pages, writer heaps praise on subject, whom he liberally quotes. Along the way, Moore lets us know that the man who was Fox News’s brightest prime-time star shuns both socks and deodorant. He also tells us how Tucker Carlson and Donald Trump shared yucks over women’s legs.
“Look at those beer girls,” Carlson recollects Trump saying, at a golf event at his New Jersey club last July. “You can’t make legs like that. That’s genetics!”
