...so they tune into Fox News?
Seriously, some if not most people want to feed their confirmation bias. And whatever channel they choose to watch mostly shows where on the political spectrum they started from, not where they end up.

TC does not do "discourse." He invites guests on and doesn't listen to them but just looks at them confusedly before cutting them off.

When you can show TC actually doing something approaching honest discourse, you can come back with that argument.
What the opposition should be vilified for is going waaaay overboard with the outrage, just like your side routinely does.

That's not what he's saying. He's not inviting anyone to have a fair conversation. That's not his thing.

Actually, they can and they are. Repeatedly. As are you for trying to make TC out to be this innocent bystander who is objectively seeking the truth rather than trying to push an agenda.

Mojo and I have both pointed out that your outrage is tedious and boring and pointless.
Keep raging on though cause it's obviously giving you a reason to get up in the morning.
