Jon Stewart has a history with Tucker Carlson going back twenty years to his appearance on Carlson's old CNN show Crossfire. That should have effectively have ended Carlson's media career but it didn't, with MSNBC and then Fox News all giving him airtime to spew his dangerous nonsense.
In the 2024 edition of Tucker Carlson, he's still peddling his brand of bullshit, but now he's doing it whoring himself out for brutal and ruthless dictators, as if that's any sort of world to emulate. Jon Stewart doesn't think so and neither should you.

Stewart took notes about Carlson referring to himself as a journalist (“Lie about what your job is,” Stewart said as he scribbled) and saying his duty was to “inform people” (“Lie about what your duty is.”)
“I have much to learn — ‘Disguise your deception and capitulation to power as noble and moral and based in freedom.’ Yes, master.” — JON STEWART
Carlson’s coverage of Russia included a trip to a grocery store, where he said the low price of food would “radicalize” viewers against American leaders.
