- tim333 5mo agoThe article says too big for his boots and part responsible for a $787m libel judgement. Also called Senior Executive Vice President for Corporate Communications a cunt. Doesn't mention idealogue.
- pphysch 5mo agoThe article doesn't even include the words "ideologue" or "extreme" or make a similar claim. Very weird and defensive response.
- selectodude 5mo agoIt really isn’t. The fact that it seems like people can’t use descriptive adjectives on HN is always so bizarre to me.
- pphysch 5mo agoYou should try using better description adjectives, like "rude", "racist", "uppity" instead of spreading misinformation.
- freejazz 5mo ago"But ultimately Carlson’s escalating toxicity, which included an undercurrent of white supremacy and a penchant for demeaning women and minorities, led Lachlan Murdoch, the then chief executive of Fox Corp, to pull the plug, the book says." How obtuse are you being?
- pphysch 5mo agoYou are being deliberately obtuse. Unbearably rude and "extreme ideologue" are completely different things. There are many Nice & Respectable people who are extreme ideologues. Words have meaning.
- freejazz 5mo agoThat's incredibly poor reading comprehension on your part. > There are many Nice & Respectable people who are extreme ideologues You can't actually be serious.
