Who is unbiased?

Almost nobody these days. Some may be better at times but in our current climate, people can't help to slant their reporting. I can't watch most news shows without walking away stressed out. News has become about viewership

Everybody is biased and that's why having all these options is so beneficial. We can't expect singular journalist to be able to present every angle and to ask the most poignant questions on every issue they cover.

Tucker triggering the liberals. Love to see it.

---

it's no mystery the "indulging putin to own the libs" comments are all coming from the hardcore maga posters. putin's whole strategy is to amplify their populist, anti-interventionist sentiment so he can continue his wars of aggression against europe unchecked. this wink and nod game he and tucker play is pretty transparently meant to manipulate maga's reflexive tendency to support anything that could remotely be construed as anti-establishment or owning the libs, even if it's tacit endorsement of a dictatorial authoritarian murderous regime hell-bent on the west's destruction.

---

this post is void of reality

you know that puti never invaded while trump was president only when obama and biden

russia thanks you for your lack of seeing reality

---

You probably also think trump can end the war in 24 hours because he said so.

---

trumps foreign policy speaks for itself

destroyed isis
abraham accords
russia didnt invade

---

The "Russia didn't invade" argument is nonsense. I don't see how it gets such traction.

Not everything that happens in the world during a presidential term is a reflection of that president. In fact, most things aren't. Shocker, I know.

I could just as easily say Putin waited until Biden was in office because Trump made promises to help him if he did. It's nonsense, but it's got precisely the same amount of basis in fact as suggesting Putin didn't invade because of trump.

---

Traction? Putin met face to face with fish eyed Joe in June if I remember right and within months started massing troops and equipment. Even your constant goaltending can't let something like that pass.

Part of the issue is we are just so saturated with 'fake news' propagandists like Stephanopolous, Dan Rather, Andrea Miller, F Chuck Todd, or for goodness sakes Christianne Amanpour who are velvet soft with dictators and anything anti-American in their work careers spanning from any 'news' organization to 'chief of staff' at the White House. The American "MSM" or lame stream media as Rush put it has loved the Soviets/Russians since way before their mouthpieces excused Bernie honeymooning there.

The approbation that Tucker just had the temerity to go interview a guy, without ever even knowing the content of the interview, is bemusing/hilarious.

What's kind of weird is when the guys in the 5th Column don't know that they are in the 5th Column.

You are admiring and praising a genocidal dictator. That is your hint that you are in the 5th Column, MAGA.

I don't doubt that Tucker is going to try to be polite to Putin,
and Putin will certainly try to present his side as holy.
But that isn't really why so many Dems are on this thread saying
how horrible it is for Tucker to interview Putin.
The Dems are so used to controlling the information flow that
now that Twitter/X has allowed real competition, they are appalled.
Expect more economic warfare against Twitter/X (mainly lawsuits).

elon doesn't need any help from the dems with financially hamstringing twitter

and nah, we've just watched tucker parrot russian propaganda since putin's invasion and become skeptical this interview won't be more of the same

Why does Tucker interviewing Putin bother you so much? I still don't understand the outrage about any of this…

I think it's because Tucker and/or putin might destroy the narrative that they are Trump shills if they're allowed to use their own words. Lefties hate it when the truth comes out or people can actually listen to a person state their position in opposition to the MSM political narrative.

I am weak-minded. My beliefs are so shallow that if I hear anything contradictory to my beliefs, my brain melts. I assume every other person is as shallow and weak-minded as me so assume they shouldn't be able to hear differing beliefs or opinions either. Hope that helps.

Can you provide anything to back this up, or are you just the typical premium leftist troll that shows up here to hit and run with low IQ one liners?

Maybe stick to obsessing about where a 16 year old is going to play football.

Well I could post every interview he's ever had but it would take a while.

[Take the time. Having a negative view of a journalist is in-bounds. Making statements that a journalist is "Hitler Youth" and then not backing it up with real verifiable examples, when challenged, is not posting in a way where you are trying to have a discussion in good faith. -Staff]

Why, because it's literally government propoganda, you know the thing Tucker *****ed about... Let's not pretend it's journalism. Tucker, has, for a long time made an effort to subvert American democracy for conservative, evangical dictatorship. He wants America to have a decades long "conservative" leader LIKE Putin. And the dark part is he crafts his story under the guise of "FrEE SpEEcH". Do you think Putin would allow an uncensored, unedited interview with Biden by Gary Kasparov be aired in Russia since Putin just loves free speech? Forgive me, if through all it's faults, I want a multiparty Democracy even if that means sometimes defending and supporting ideologies I do not agree with #concernedmoderate.

You know what, I will give Tucker a pass if he asks two key questions: #1 all of your serious political opponents have either ended up poisoned, murdered, imprisoned, or died a mysterious death, could you please explain why that seems to happen so frequently and #2, Putin you claim to be a strong Christian, how do you reconcile your "faith" and "thou shalt not kill" with the decision to kill millions of innocent people over your imperial ambitions? If he doesn't ask those two questions (he won't) then you know he's running blatant propoganda for Putin. As I said, I'm sure he'll spend a lot of time talking about Christianity, how hypocritical America is, how bad trans people are, #conservativevalues, the western world is falling apart, NATO is such a threat (but of course European militaries are so weak), CIA coup, Trump is a martyr, Iraq, etc. Etc... But you know, just because you're countercultural doesn't make you inherently righteous. The fact that some of you cannot immediately identify right and wrong in this conflict suggests serious moral, mental, and ethical decay on your part. I'm sure many of you will nod in agreement as if this is not a tailor-made propoganda to get you to have sympathy for Russia. But the truth is, Russia wants to hurt American interests all around the world. They are deepening an alliance with Iran, North Korea, and China (who have no problem handing over piles of weapons to Russia) to undermine America and our interests. Putin wants your life to get orders of magnitude worse and if that means pretending he's on "your" side, then so be it. Tucker has made someone who started a needless land war in Europe and caused untold and endless suffering a sympathetic martyr to the "own the libs" crowd.

It seems so small, distant, and irrelevant now. But I genuinely fear a situation 3 years from now where China begins building up troops to invade Taiwan. Meanwhile Putin masses troops on the Estonia border, and Trump is president. I know some of you believe Trump will magically just dissappear those problems, but Trump proudly states how he won't come to NATOs aid (a sign of real strength of course) so what leverage does he have. I mean who wants to send our sons to fight for Estonia, right? The problem is, if we get to that point we either end up in World War 3 or we end up losing access to many resources that make our standard of life possible while the entirety of Europe is plunged into a land war and that's before talking about the cluster**** that Asia would become. It would be an absolute disaster, even if we weren't in the conflict. Tens or hundreds of millions dead and every supply chain off the North American continent gone.... Depression, hyperinflation, threat of Nuclear strikes and that's if we don't get involved miltarily. This is easily preventable as the window for this happening is small for these autocrats - maybe a decade, probably 5 years. The less strength and unity we project the more likely this outcome is to happen. How do you break American unity and strength? Convince a political ideology that you're actually on their side by talking about their grievances with America. It's not about censorship; it's about what's at stake and how much of a threat to America's interests... YOUR interests... this kind of calculated propoganda is, no matter how much Tucker masks this threat. I know some of you will take the nihilistic approach to what I say, or something to the affect of "Putin is better than democrats". Being an ******* feels good if you're frustrated (probably why Trump is so popular if we're honest - he gives you permission to be an *******). But your life can only be as good or better if America is prosperous going forward. America will not be prosperous if we listen to Putin for inspiration.
