Tucker Carlson is one of the most influential conservatives in America. From his days of dominating after dinner debates in college, to his rise as the most listened-to talk show host in the country, Tucker is one of the nation's foremost gaslighters -- using the term for those persuade you the truth is not the truth. He might should be considered one of society's most harmful figures.
After graduating from college, he applied for the CIA, but was rejected. He then worked for some small, but national newspapers before getting on CNN as one of the anchors of Crossfire, a popular debate show featuring both conservative and liberal co-hosts. He was booted from that position when management found that the shouting and talking over each other was not to their taste. He then took a job with MSNBC, but was let go for low ratings.
Today? About 4 million people watch his program each night, making it the most-watched cable news program in U.S. history.
