MSNBC's new weenie (hint: he wears a bow-tie and his name's not George Will)
Of course, it's Tucker Carlson, formerly Crossfire's "dick" (according to Jon Stewart -- click here for that oldie-but-goodie clip), and now, after much ado, he's in prime-time on MSNBC (which, for the sake of my own mental health, I try not to watch too much) with The Situation* (stupid name for a show, eh?). That he's up against CNN's Larry King Live and FOX's Hannity & Colmes, and hence is doomed to relative failure, is neither here nor there, but, speaking of Slate's Dana Stevens (which I did a few posts ago), check out her excellent (and quite hilarious) review of the show's first week.
Funniest passage: "Tucker Carlson comes off as your ultimate nightmare of the college roommate you might be assigned on the first day of freshman year: a smug yuppie smartass with a drawerful of perfectly folded pastel polo shirts. But there's something sneakily subversive about him, too -- he might surprise you by smuggling a bottle of bourbon under those shirts and sharing it with you over a late night of raunchy talk. The Situation is shallow, but far from unwatchable; it zips along at a healthy clip, getting in a few good digs along the way, and next thing you know it's over, and you're no worse off than you were before."
* Actually, it's The Situation with Tucker Carlson (here's the website, if you must). And Tucker's got a blog coming. Great. (Is this a Sign of the Apocalypse? Tucker, the show, the blog -- the whole to-do? Tempting... but no, not yet. I'll give it some time. Besides, it's just MSNBC. In the end, who cares?)

Great quote about Carlson from Matt Taibbi of the New York Press last January:
"Carlson puts a soothing face on conservatism for educated East Coast progressives – because even the biggest neo-Marxist wanker from Brown takes one look at Carlson and sees the one man in America he would feel sure of being able to kick the sh*t out of in a back alley."
