Hit job? I talked to a NYT writer about his Tucker book | Big Pod #15

The New York Times has rarely been kind to conservatives, and that’s true now more than ever.

That’s why when I got an email from a New York Magazine writer – asking me for an interview for his upcoming book on Tucker Carlson – I hesitated.

I agreed under the condition that we talk on video, so I can publish the conversation in full.

I don't know what the book will be like, but Jason's a pleasant guy, and we talked a lot about my time at Fox News.
