The Last Week Tonight host devoted 25 minutes to examining the rise of Carlson as Fox News' most-watched host. “I would like nothing more than to not play into his wildly offensive schtick,” Oliver said.

Oliver also noted that Tucker Carlson Tonight is popular among white supremacists like David Duke, who hosts a podcast analyzing Carlson's show.
