Crossfired

CNN gasses Tucker Carlson, pseudoconservative commentator from "Crossfire", which rumor has it is the first step toward cancelling the show.

Good riddance to both.

I have to confess; I have not been able to stomach Crossfire in years. Its first few seasons were interesting - something different - but for at least the last ten years, it's been an abominable waste of time. Since Paul Begala and James Carville joined the cast, it's been worse - it's been a symptom of all that's wrong with American mainstream media political coverage, a ridiculous, pointelessly argumentative, artificial brouhaha. I dont' care why they're cancelling Crossfire, but I'm glad that they are.

And could they have found a less aggressive conservative than Tucker Carlson? Of all the people to put up against those morons Begala and Carvile, why that hamster?

Let's just say, a la Scrappleface, that I've done my mourning in advance.
