Tucker Carlson Ripped For Cringey 'Menstruating Teenagers' Comparison About Lack Of Media Diversity

Tucker Carlson Ripped For Cringey 'Menstruating Teenagers' Comparison About Lack Of Media Diversity
Fox News

Fox News personality Tucker Carlson raised eyebrows after he somehow turned a diatribe about a lack of diversity in news media into a remark about the menstruation cycles of teenagers.

Carlson made his remarks during a segment in which he criticized media coverage that denounced the January 6 insurrection as a dark day in American history. The Capitol riot resulted in several deaths, over 100 injuries to law enforcement and millions of dollars in damages when a mob of MAGA rally goers violently stormed the United States Capitol at the urging of former Republican President Donald Trump.


In what amounted to little more than a non-sequitur, Carlson asserted "there is precisely zero diversity in our national media" before comparing what he suggested amounted to conformity to menstrual cycle synchronicity among teenagers.

Carlson said:

“For all the talk you hear of diversity, there is precisely zero diversity in our national media. People may have different skin tones or different sexual interests—not relevant."
"They are all from such similar backgrounds with such similar beliefs and values and life experiences that their gut reactions to everything have aligned into perfect synchronicity, like menstruating teenagers at summer camp.”

Derogatory comments referencing a menstrual cycle have been decried as sexist for suggesting those experiencing menses are incapable of rational thought during their "time of the month."

Carlson's remarks were delivered “without a shred of self-awareness," according to The Daily Beast, which noted they also amounted to further downplaying of the January 6 insurrection, which took place when the MAGA mob incited by Trump's attacked the United States Capitol on the false rhetoric the 2020 general election was stolen.

Carlson was harshly criticized for his remarks.



Carlson went on to criticize the Democratic Party as thinking "exactly alike because message discipline is what they do" and suggested they are incapable of thinking "independently."

He suggested anyone who points this out is immediately "denounced as a conspiracy theorist," a remark only further downplaying the significance of the outcry from Democrats against a mob attempting to overthrow constitutional democracy.

Lauren Boebert Casts Doubt On Moon Landing During Wild Interview With Conspiracy Theorist

Colorado Republican Representative Lauren Boebert was criticized after she seemingly agreed with the conspiracy theory that the moon landing was faked in a wide-ranging interview with conservative conspiracy theorist Alex Stein.

The segment began with the duo casting doubt on nuclear weapons—Boebert even joked about needing "tin foil"—and moved into weirder territory when Stein praised Boebert for "vibing" with him on the topic of the moon landing. Conspiracy theorists have long alleged the moon landing was fabricated by NASA in what they claim was an elaborate hoax.
