Tucker Carlson's Evolution and Influence

Tucker Carlson has undergone a noticeable evolution in his commentary and influence. Initially recognized for common sense points during crises, such as in 2020, he gained viewers seeking an alternative to more liberal media. While acknowledging his prior conspiracy theories and divisive statements, some viewers still found solace in his critiques of left-leaning narratives. However, his departure from Fox News has led to a heightened sense of extremism in his rhetoric, including interviews with questionable sources and spreading conspiracy theories, such as false narratives around the FBI and CIA. His current trajectory appears to align more closely with promoting an 'America is no better' mentality, bridging the gap to a Chomsky-like stance that paints American exceptionalism in a negative light.
