The Left Targets Tucker Carlson’s Advertisers… Again

Posted by Mike LaChance on June 13, 2020 20 Comments

In recent weeks, Tucker Carlson of FOX News has been a lone voice in the media wilderness. No one on television has been more brutally honest about what is happening in America right now. Carlson has even had the guts to criticize Black Lives Matter. For this, he must be punished.
