A war is starting and your big concern is a fringe talk show host that reaches < 1% of the population? Shelve the partisanship for a couple days.

His show is watched by 1.5% of the US population and is the single most watched cable news show. I would find his comments abhorrent whether they were on Fox or MSNBC.

Ratings move around, but for Q4 2021, the last full quarterly ratings period, he averaged 3.2m viewers, which is just under 1% of the population.

He'd need to average another million viewers a night to get close to 1.5%.

I'm not sure what's partisan about the GP's comment, unless any reference to Tucker's support for Russia is somehow partisan.

It is partisan, in the opening moments of a terrible war, to look to use said war as a way to attack your local political opponents, or to deflect blame from your political allies.

I do believe that Tucker reaches more than 1% of the population.

Also, my opinion about this situation: war has no place in 2022.

It is relevant. These commentators give soft power to Putin.
