Carlson would become the first member of the Western media to interview the Russian leader since Russia's invasion of Ukraine almost two years ago.

      Yeah he wraps it up in a neat little package to make it seem like he’s just trying to be a benevolent journalist, but anyone with two or three functioning brain cells can read between the lines here. It’s really creepy and disturbing especially when you realize tens of millions of Americans like and believe this guy. SMH

      Yeah, I’m not sure how else he’d have the connections to set up that interview, or why they’d reach out to him.

      It amazes me that Fox news viewers can’t connect the dots on even the simplest of lies.

        If you connect the dots you’re more likely to see the shape, and they don’t want to see it (or admit out loud yet that they see it)

        That would require thinking about things they’re not specifically told about, and fox “news” programming inherently selects against people with that ability. Anyone who has that ability will stop watching Fox because they’ll quickly see through the lies and stop watching.
