In this excellent bit of research an associate named Thomas Littleton pulls back the curtain on Tucker Carlson’s funding. It’s interesting stuff. Here’s Tom’s conclusion.
Fox News and many other “Conservative” news outlets are actually promoting Libertarian “Free Market” Friedrich August von Hayek ideology with progressive political social stances as the “new conservatism”. Many of the Fox regulars like Charlie Kirk are doing the same. The younger generation of GOP and moderate politically engaged seem to not only fail to recognize the difference but also find enjoyment in helping undermine the “Reagan Era” politics of their conservative parents and grandparents with a ”more inclusive, compassionate, pluralistic society”, critical theory laced libertarianism wearing a thin layer of conservative talking point veneer. It is a sad deception and with little effort has actually moved the entire stance of many “left of center” folks on social issues. The VERY same thing is happening in Conservative Christian seminaries and is therefore flooding a rebranded / false-labeled Libertarianism mingled with progressive social policy and Communitarianism into the pulpits and churches of America with little resistance. Missions organizations and parachurch ministries are equally compromised. With his old associations and his long tolerance for his former employers politics and mingled values — coupled with the SEED MONEY for the new Tucker Carlson Network coming from a Democrat Muslim American’s business — Tucker does not appear to be a trustworthy source for anyone looking for news from a truly conservative perspective. Evangelical conservatives in particular appear to NEED to keep searching and not be taken in by the same old song and dance … and duplicity. Keep your convictions. Dump your networks and trade in your pundits. Stay with the one unchanging TRUTH … GOD’s WORD to inform your worldview and your engagement.
