Rachel Maddow defends former MSNBC colleague Tucker Carlson: He hasn't changed his beliefs

Mediaite

“I think the thing that Tucker gets a knock for — that he doesn’t deserve — is this idea that he’s evolved and changed in some radical new direction,” Maddow said in a Mediaite podcast interview of the Fox News host, who had her on as a frequent guest on his MSNBC primetime show from 2005 to 2008. “Tucker has always been that guy. He is legitimately that guy. He is not faking it. He comes by his beliefs and his convictions and even his tone of voice quite naturally. He is not putting it on.”
