“There are a few things any sensible human knows not to do,” Samantha Bee said at the top of this week’s Full Frontal. “Never lick a bus station door handle. Never start a conversation with a man about Infinite Jest. And never go on a radio show hosted by a guy named Bubba the Love Sponge. Apparently, Tucker Carlson is not a sensible human being.”
With that, Bee was off and running with the best late-night takedown of the beleaguered Fox News host to date. After playing the worst parts of Carlson’s recently unearthed musings, she said, “That is vile and disgusting and presumably the audition tape that got him a job interview at Fox.”
Instead of apologizing for his past comments, Carlson dismissed his decade-old “naughty” talk and urged people to watch his show to see what he really thinks.
