Previously, Carlson said he had planned to sit-down with the Russia president while at Fox News but then called it off claiming the U.S. government was monitoring him.

“I tried to interview Vladimir Putin, and the U.S. government stopped me,” Carlson told the Swiss publication, Die Weltwoche back in September. “By the way, nobody defended me. I don’t think there was anybody in the news media who said, ‘Wait a second. I may not like this guy, but he has a right to interview anyone he wants, and we have a right to hear what Putin says.'”

    Fucker Carlson has never asked a hard question a day in his life. He’s there to get propaganda talking points directly from his boss since he can’t get them filtered through Fox anymore.

      That’s also why nobody defended him. He’s a nazi PsyOps operative; not a journalist. Anything he asks is performative and only to serves his agenda. He doesn’t deserve defence. He deserves ridicule.

        “I know the answer to this one personally but Mr. Putin why shouldn’t every American masterbait to topless photos of you?”

        Defended him from what exactly? He’s the only one claiming that the supposed interview was blocked.

        It’s no different than me claiming that I was supposed to be the next president of Russia, but was blocked by the US government, and nobody defended me!
