Libs Trying to Convince America Tucker Carlson is a Nazi, White Supremacist
Is literally every single conservative a racist to liberals?

Media Matters is trying to get you to believe that Tucker Carlson is suspicious. After Megyn Kelly left Fox News, one article explains, members of the so-called alt-right were chatting about whom they wanted to replace her. After just a little conversation, the alt-right members decided that the best replacement would be the bowtie-wearing pundit who earned his chops by writing for the The Weekly Standardand The New York Times Magazine and who appeared on PBS, CNN, and MSNBC.
“TUCKER FOR ANOTHER HOUR!” reads the thread’s top comment. “Then start spamming fox with emails and comments letting them know,” wrote one Redditor. “You can’t cuck the Tuck,” commented another.Twenty-four hours later, the trolls seem to have gotten their way, with Fox News announcing that Carlson will take over Kelly’s 9 p.m. timeslot. Carlson -- a preppy son of privilege who has incongruously become cable news’s most favored host among neo-Nazis and white nationalists -- will now have a prime-time venue to continue giving Fox News a bigger foothold with the “alt-right” audience.
The article went on to say that certain alt-right leaders like Mike Cernovich said Carlson would “make FoxNews great again" and that some on the alt-right have made Carlson into memes:
Obviously, Media Matters is trying to make you believe Carlson's views are suspect since his fans are suspicious. In Logic 101, this is called an ad hominem attack: "When the source is viewed negatively because of its association with another person or group who is already viewed negatively."
Person 1 states that Y is true.Person 2 also states that Y is true, and person 2 is a moron.Therefore, person 1 must be a moron too.
This is a logical fallacy, and Americans aren't going to buy that Carlson is a racist just because he's supported by the alt-right. Sorry, libs. You'll have to try harder than that.
