Behar: ‘When You Are Spewing Lies’ that Cost Lives, No Place Is Safe for Tucker Carlson
Pam Key 26 Jul 2021
Joy Behar told her co-hosts Monday on ABC’s “The View” that Fox News host Tucker Carlson is not safe from being confronted because he is “spewing lies that cost people their lives.”
The panel was discussing a video from a Montana fly fishing shop of a man accosting Carlson by saying he is the “worst human being known to man.”
Behar said, “Well, I’m against public confrontations like that, especially when you are in a hostile state of mind. If you have something to say to me, tweet it, but, you know, don’t come up to me with your hostility. I don’t like that. But I think that Tucker probably thought that he was in a safe space. I mean, he’s in some kind of fly fishing store in Montana. I mean, he figured everybody is there on his side, but when you are spewing lies that cost people their lives, actually no place is safe for him, and people like him.”
She continued, “As for the vaccine, now you know that Tucker got the vaccine. I don’t think that Rupert Murdoch would allow people in that Fox building without all being vaccinated, and yet he goes around vilifying the vaccine and saying lies about the vaccine’s effectiveness which is very, very dangerous. He’s like the guy who’s on the lifeboat wearing a vest — or on the Titanic. He’s wearing a vest and telling other people don’t wear the vest. This is what he thinks of his viewers. He’s more interested in ratings and getting attention than he is in his viewers’ lives. There are people like this guy in Montana who will not have it. And the fact that he was very, very nice about it you’ll notice. He did not become a threat. He just basically quietly said, you know, you are the worst human being for doing what you are doing. So you can’t really fault him on that end.”

Tucker is really getting to the libs, isn't he?
This type of venom used to be reserved for Rush, may he RIP

A few years ago this might've been considered a criminal threat.
Of course this obnoxious gasbag doesn't have the physical capacity to harm anyone but any one of her nutter audience might.

Joy doesn't grasp that she is no more than a pesky speck of dog poo on Tucker's shoe.

So, did a Google search. Astonishingly 'The View' has 2.967 million Total Viewers, and Tucker Carlson has 2.937 million viewers .... so 'The View" has a slightly larger audience. I'd say in that light what Joy is spewing is a threat. Just my opinion.

Interesting...your data.
The audiences of The View and Tucker Carlson, while similar is size, come from different oceans.
The problem lies with husbands who are not inclined be interested in "politics" and take the lead from the spouses...who watch The View.
My very best friend and I are hanging by a thread over his refusal to accept Donald Trump's success while POTUS, as well as being held up comparatively with Joe Biden.
He got right in my ear immediately about how he walked away from several friendships over MAGA.
I told him, "###K YOU!!" Said, I've been your friend for over 20 years and that gives me the right to say any bleeping thing I feel like".
Don't give me that crap that "Gasoline prices have risen before...". That "...prices go up all the time!".
I can't reach him. His wife is a strict environmentalist. And he loves her to death. LOL!

I understand your point, the the viewers themselves are collectively different; but I was strictly looking at the number of viewers.
I had expected "The View" to have a much lower number of viewers watching and I was surprised at the number of people who actually watch that trash.
If we were to simply go by the number of people watching each show, it indicates a definite divided nation. I'm hoping Tucker's ratings surpass "The View". He's about the last one who has a more conservative viewpoint left.
