Have you ever watched a Tucker Carlson segment and thought, I bet this sounded better in the original Russian?
Americans aren’t the only ones who’ve noticed that Carlson’s reliably Kremlin-friendly Fox News show could be right at home on the airwaves in mother Russia.
In fact, for more than three years a 20-something in Western Siberia has been posting overdubbed segments of Carlson’s show to a YouTube channel called Такер Карлсон на русском, or “Tucker Carlson in Russian.” The channel’s logo features Carlson’s headshot, photo-shopped with a rakish unshanka, standing before a Russian flag. It’s been a quiet hit, racking up 24 million views, and more than 170,000 subscribers.
There’s no mystery about Carlson’s appeal to a Russian audience, says Yuri Orlov, the channel’s creator, who also voices Carlson in Russian. “Tucker’s vision largely coincides with the vision of the world of the average Russian,” he says. “This applies not only to political issues, but also moral ones.”
How much does Tuckhead Carlson get paid for each appearance on Russian TV, even when they are replays from Fox? Also, does Fox have an agreement with RT to allow replays?
patrick murphy, loony squiggles, montana bill, rikitikiDA, klemubermoron, ammosexuallydysfunctional, opspecial ed, JAwholikebluegrass, are you still tucker carlon fans, and AD, I do want to know your opinion on this matter.
Back in the day the right would warn of the Communist Soviet Union. Today as far as I can tell Russia run by Putin is every bit the communists they’ve always been and yet the right like Tucker Carlson are now apologists for the Kremlin. Most thinking Americans can see who the traitors are here at home

I don’t understand how anyone can watch Tucker and believe that he supports Putin in any way.
