Tucker Carlson calls CNN's Amanpour a 'half-wit'

He probably should have used a better insult like "blinded by partisanship" or "Amanpour is enamored with tribal politics."

But nuance is hard. Simple insults are easy. And it appeals to his viewer base.

Plus that would describe himself perfectly.

Isn't an honorary doctorate one u didnt actually earn

Someone intelligent explain the accomplishment

It best make sense too no bullshit best spew forth

There's a few different reasons and it can be one or more of them depending on the person receiving the honour.

It can be a way to acknowledge expertise in a field that has been obtained via experience rather than in academia. That's why you get a lot in Law, Business, The Arts and Journalism.

A lot of universities have stringent qualification requirements for lecturing Usually a doctorate, post-doc plus a teaching qualification. It can allow the people awarded the ability to take up short term lecturing positions (sometimes only for a year or even a single term) at universities.

It can be a way for universities to raise their public profile to secure funding. That's why you'll see less well known universities dishing out honourary degrees more than top rated ones.

Looks like mostly worthless awards.

Like an Emmy, Grammy, or Golden Globe.

But he felt the need to type it all out due to butt hurt.

Butthurt thread according to the people who set the standard

KMC has really become a petty and childish forum. Used to be some pretty good debates and interesting ideas. Now it appears to be quite a few mental midgets running the asylum.

If you act like an ass to everyone who disagrees with you, then you are an ass.

If you can’t read and understand what someone is trying to say because you choose to focus on irrelevant points that you some see as a “gotcha” moment, you’ll never be more than a uninformed Chump.

If you all you are here for us to prop up your fragile ego by posting the lamest of quips, Jeep leading that fulfilling life.

Now feel free to flame me, if that’s all you got, I’m happy to oblige.

That being said, the glory days of this forum are long gone.

Agreed, the far-lefties on this board should calm down.

Like can you explain what you wanted to debate here? Specifically.

Not a debate, just a post to begin a discussion. In the end it really doesn’t matter, all threads seem to end the same.

It comes off like a bad faith thread to be honest.

Something to feed the leftists here and an attempt to bait the more conservative posters. I will admit that isn't on you, it's the atmosphere of this forum.

Is she a half wit? No probably not. Most of these folk just feign ignorance. We see it on this forum all the time from Rob and company.

More so I thought that it was interesting that someone would call out a lack of credentials on another, but have none whatsoever them self.

Also interesting how others support tucker is supported by people when he doesn’t have a leg to stand on.

It isn’t about left or right, it’s more about choosing whic battle to fight I guess

It's the type of hypocrisy we do see frequently.

Like calling out anti lockdown protests but staying silent or even joining anti police protests. Sadly Tucker is not unique.

OP creates a butthurt thread and then whines about lack of debating.

Welcome to KMC.
