On Tuesday morning, Media Issues For America revealed two leaked clips of Tucker talking to colleagues previous to happening air again whereas he was nonetheless working for Fox Information. In a single clip, Carlson seems to have made misogynistic and sexually-charged crude feedback whereas speaking to Piers Morgan previous to an look Tucker had on Piers’ TalkTV present in April of final yr. Contemplating the office discrimination lawsuit not too long ago filed by a former producer in opposition to Carlson and his nightly present, these feedback actually don’t look good.
In that first clip, whereas Tucker was making ready to go dwell on Morgan’s eponymous present, Piers says this to the now-former ex-Fox Information talker:
“It’s simply nice to have you ever on my present. I imply, I’ve been on yours sufficient occasions. It’s nice.”
To which Carlson crudely replies:
“I believe it’s completely cool. So let’s — if we’re going to speak about intercourse, I’d like to hit among the superb factors of approach, however, you understand, but it surely’s your present. It’s completely as much as you.”
Ew…
Morgan responds with out lacking a beat by referencing a section Carlson had achieved the week earlier than that on Tucker Carlson Tonight about males tanning their testicles to extend testosterone ranges:
“We will actually speak about your sexual approach, particularly after your tanning testicles final week.”
And Carlson replied:
“Not mine! We’ll communicate in additional normal phrases, however I’ve bought one thing so as to add.”
Critically vomit-inducing…
Fortunately, when the duo went on air in the course of the ensuing section on Piers’ present final yr, Tucker’s sexual approach was not mentioned. However sadly, for our functions right here, that was simply the warm-up.

One other video taken from behind the scenes whereas Tucker was on the set set of his personal recently-concluded present on Fox Information is way extra unsettling.
Chatting with somebody who’s off-camera at one level earlier than going dwell on the community on his personal present, the 53-year-old host will be heard saying this about somebody:
“You wouldn’t? OK. I’m not, you understand what, I’m not certified on that rating. I’ll say, I believed his girlfriend was sort of yummy.”
Then, as if understanding his phrases might get leaked — which is strictly what occurred Tuesday — Carlson backtracked:
“Simply kidding, in case that is being pulled off the fowl.”
(The “fowl,” FYI, is a cable information slang time period for a communications satellite tv for pc.)
Tucker then went on so as to add:
“Hey, Media Issues For America, go f**ok your self. I don’t even know what his girlfriend appears to be like like. And if I did, I might not discover her ‘yummy.’”
Uhhh WTF?!
Then, in a 3rd leaked clip, Tucker will be seen on the set of his now-killed second venture Tucker Carlson As we speak. That present was accessible on Fox Nation — Fox Information’ net streaming service — earlier than he was fired from the information community.
However judging by this leaked quip, it feels like Tucker didn’t have a ton of respect for his streaming viewers. He instructed anyone off digital camera whereas prepping his look to go dwell:
“I can by no means assess my look. I await my postmenopausal followers to weigh in on that.”
Wow…
Then, joking about how he’s about to go on air, he added:
“What, they need to management me from afar? OK, I’m placing the leash on.”
And even that wasn’t it.
Apparently not content material to depart it at criticizing Fox Nation’s followers, he additionally slammed the streaming service itself with one other clip that was pulled from earlier than an interview with Andrew Tate final August.
In that leaked clip, which was first launched by MMFA again on Monday night, Carlson mentioned:
“No person’s going to observe it on Fox Nation. No person watches Fox Nation as a result of the location sucks. So I’d actually like to only … dump the entire thing on YouTube. However anyway, that’s simply my view, OK? I’m simply annoyed with it.”
And he went on from there, hurriedly venting his frustrations with Fox Nation:
“It’s exhausting to make use of that web site. I don’t know why they’re not fixing it. It’s driving me insane. They usually’re like making, like, Lifetime films. However they don’t work on the infrastructure of the location. Like what? It’s loopy. And it drives me loopy as a result of it’s like we’re doing all this further work and nobody can discover it. It’s unbelievable, truly. I don’t know who runs that web site.”
Earlier than he concluded with a flourish:
“We’re like working like animals to supply all this content material, and the folks accountable for it, whoever that man’s, no matter his title is, like, they’re ignoring the truth that the location doesn’t work. And I believe it’s like a betrayal of our efforts. That’s how I really feel. So I, after all, I resent it.”
Yikes!
Not precisely a strategy to endear your self to massive boss Rupert Murdoch there, Tucker. Guess that’s why Carlson is now not with the community, then. Proper?
