Rounding out a particularly hateful week on his primetime show, the Fox News host Tucker Carlson asserted Wednesday during a discussion of the environmental hazards of balloons, "I actually hate litter, which is one of the reasons I'm so against illegal immigration."
It was a completely irrelevant comment to a conversation about the environment. Carlson had been speaking with author and journalist Cathy Areu about the debate over the threat that helium balloons, which are not biodegradable, could pose to animals and to the planet as a whole. One town in Rhode Island has already banned sales of the product.
