Part 4/10:
A focal point of Hanson’s critique is the media’s role, specifically targeting figures like Tucker Carlson. Hanson draws parallels between Carlson’s recent interviews and the practices of William F. Buckley, a legendary conservative figure who, in his time, allowed controversial figures like Eldridge Cleaver and George Wallace to speak but challenged their views rigorously. Hanson argues that Tucker Carlson failed to do this with Nick Fuentes, a known white nationalist and anti-Semite, by not adequately challenging his falsehoods and dangerous rhetoric.
