It worked with a trump appointed judge too: https://www.npr.org/2020/09/29/917747123/you-literally-cant-believe-the-facts-tucker-carlson-tells-you-so-say-fox-s-lawye She wrote: "Fox persuasively argues, that given Mr. Carlson's reputation, any reasonable viewer 'arrive[s] with an appropriate amount of skepticism' about the statement he makes." Just read U.S. District Judge Mary Kay Vyskocil's opinion, leaning heavily on the arguments of Fox's lawyers: The "'general tenor' of the show should then inform a viewer that [Carlson] is not 'stating actual facts' about the topics he discusses and is instead engaging in 'exaggeration' and 'non-literal commentary.' " Not to worry, Carlson's lawyers said. In written briefs, they cited previous rulings to argue Carlson's words were "loose, figurative or hyperbolic." They took note of a nonjournalist's use of the word "extort," which proved nondefamatory because it was mere "rhetorical hyperbole, a vigorous epithet." So, Carlsons lawyers, arguing for him in court, argue, in effect, that "it's all bs" and B-man wanted proof cuz he still believes what he says is the truth. Only conclusion to be drawn therefore, is that most Carlson viewers are unreasonable. Imagine that.

In fairness, though, you’re linking to Russian State television as a reliable source of data, and I haven’t seen one person defending TC as an unimpeachable purveyor of truth. That begs the question—what’s your personal standard on comments about the truth? What is it that compels you to comment specifically about TC, v politicians who lie or craft false narratives to influence others? I don’t watch TC, and recognize the bombastic nature of his program. I personally don’t see a big difference between what he does, and some of MSM outlets or networks news. You have to weed through the language used, consider the agenda, and consider what info might have been left out to shade the story.
