SubscribeIf you haven’t seen the Carlson Cuomo sit down (the interviewer/interviewee roles kept reversing) you’re in for a treat. Both were reasonably honest. Cuomo’s explanation for his on-air and off-air actions with his brother strained credulity, but other than that, his points were heartfelt and reasonable. Carlson’ stood his ground about the Putin interview, Jan 6th, affirmative action, DEI, and pro-life. Cuomo graciously acknowledged Carlson’s strongest points but acquitted himself well in rebuttal.
The interview was held at Carlson’s home in Florida and Cuomo several times noted the difference in their career trajectories since each was ejected from their cable news jobs. Those two points indicate who has the stronger hand. A delightful part was that this was long and unedited. That creates a lot of transparency and encourages a reasonable dialogue. Who knows, maybe this will start a trend? The cynic in me says probably not.
