Halo
Mayor
Long before Tucker interviewed Putin. He related how he learned from the great Larry King how to conduct an interview.
The story goes Tucker was booked as a guest host for the show and when he arrived he was given no prep work by the staff to review for the upcoming show Flummoxed Tucker later asked Larry how he could work like that and carry on great interviews on a regular basis.
Larry told him the secret to a interview is to have prompting questions and then to shut up and listen. Learn from listening to ask the next question but by all means listen more than talk so that the next question is what it needs to be.
Tucker, on review of his work, since Larry and through his time at Fox exemplifies his learning a lesson well. I very much admire Tucker for listening and for the credit to a mentor due. Laura and Hannity failed to see that was Tucker's ratings success as it was Larry's
Tucker went to Russia to HEAR the other side and he did so effectively. I heard what Putin had to say.
My only objection was his lauding a handsome sub station as if we don't have/had our own Penn Station and Grand Central. Those things were a product of greater generational values (minus the communism). I didn't like the ideological themes in the Moscow station but those themes were well preserved indeed.
Going to a super market with Gringo dollars also says nothing. The ordinary Russian before the war was somewhat impoverished and likely still are with little to no hope to shop there.
So a win and a loss for Tucker. Net win. Nobody is perfect but he is way BETTER than most.
This topic deserve its own thread. Don't you think @Jack4freedom ?
