On Tuesday, April 20, Tucker Carlson delivered a strange, unexpected segment on Fox News in which he spoke about an investigator tracking down his college yearbook.

Many online speculated Carlson was trying to get ahead of a potentially damaging story.


But what could be in Carlson's college yearbook he didn't want people to know about?

Once the reports inevitably broke, it seems in his college yearbook Carlson claimed to be a part of the "Dan White Society."

Dan White was the former San Francisco politician who murdered openly gay Supervisor Harvey Milk and Mayor George Moscone.


It seems Carlson's history of intolerance goes all the way back to his college days, when he openly praised and offered his support for a homophobic murderer.



On Twitter, many people drew a connection not only to Carlson's past, but to the conservative movement's relationship with intolerance which continues today.

For the murder of two people, including the Mayor of San Francisco, Dan White (a former police officer) was sentenced to only seven years in prison. He was paroled after serving five.

After White killed Milk and Moscone, he received unabashed support from many of his former colleagues in the city.

A decade later, most people regarded White's sentencing as a miscarriage of justice, but he was still being honored by Tucker Carlson in the young man's college yearbook.


This is only the latest in a long string of damning incidents Carlson has been a part of.

Yet he remains on the air with more viewers than any other cable news program.


Carlson has already signaled he does not regret his yearbook listing and it will not affect his program on Fox News.

And so now we sit back to wait for the next Carlson controversy to emerge.

Stephen Colbert Makes Somber Plea To Americans In Wake Of Charlie Kirk's Death

Late-night host Stephen Colbert had a somber message for Americans as he addressed the assassination of far-right activist Charlie Kirk, stressing that "political violence only leads to more political violence."

Kirk died after an unidentified gunman shot him in the neck as he—ironically enough—mocked victims of gun violence at an event in Utah Valley State University. Kirk's murder has galvanized the far-right, with President Donald Trump and his surrogates claiming without evidence that rhetoric from Democrats is responsible for Kirk's death.

TikToker Hilariously Calls Out Target After Champion Pants Feature Awkwardly-Placed Front Pleat

Sometimes you can just tell when something was designed *for* women, but was not actually designed *by* women.

Take, for instance, the new pleated pants available at Target from the Champion clothing line. While there's nothing wrong with pleated pants and they certainly have a suitable spot in the workplace, the latest rendition of Champion pleated pants are, shall we say, NSFW.

Woman Goes Viral After Revealing How Her Obsession With Matcha Landed Her In The Hospital

Let's be honest: Too much of anything isn't good for us. It's all about the balance!

But the media and social media trends have taught us that certain things are really good for us, encouraging us to be like the "very mindful and very demure" girls and take care of ourselves. One such example is drinking more matcha, especially if you really like coffee or think you have a caffeine addiction.
