Tucker Carlson's Daily Caller again calls Rachel Maddow a man

February 03, 2010 5:52 pm ET by Jamison Foser


Last month, Tucker Carlson's Daily Caller web site launched with a column by The Weekly Standard's Matt Labash in which Labash referred to MSNBC anchor Rachel Maddow as a man. Hilarious, right?

If you thought that was just a case of opening-day exuberance getting the best of the Daily Caller crew, think again. It seems they still haven't stopped giggling over at Tucker's little playhouse, which today again calls Maddow a man. At the end of a "DC Trawler" entry featuring a series of photos of MSNBC's female journalists, the Daily Caller includes a picture of Maddow and a caption suggesting the photo doesn't belong with the others and referring to her as "man" and "dude":



Oh, by the way: earlier this week, The Daily Caller was admitted to the White House press pool.

[CrownPrinceBandar]

2. A strong woman makes some folks nervous.......

A strong, LESBIAN woman who could eat their academic and journalistic lunches even more so. Keep classy there Fucker! I mean Tucker. Sorry Tucker.

[proud patriot]

14. indeed it does

3. At least no one will ever confuse Tucker with being an actual man.

[Cleita]

6. Buwahahaha!

Best answer yet.

4. OMFG...admitted to the WH press pool - what are they trying to do, change the

press pool into a sludge pool? Unfreakingbelievable!

5. Tucker Carlson's little paper is hoping to get some publicity...

... by having Rachel mention it on her program. She'd be smart to just let him keep flailing without mention.

7. they are so shallow and juvenile....and obvious.

[asdjrocky]

8. For what it is worth, I've always found Rachael to be a very attractive woman.

[virgogal]

10. I agree. I'd trade looks with her any day of the week.

[babylonsister]

11. Me, too, absolutely. bowtie boy is whacked, and seems to be taking

lessons from the teabaggers regarding name calling vs. facts. But as someone said, they're afraid of women smarter than them, especially "gay" ones.

[FSogol]

12. Same here. n/t

[endless october]

i agree.

she is definitely attractive.

[Forkboy]

21. Intelligence, beauty...yup.

[Snotcicles]

9. Tucker Carlson isn't he the guy that had to go get a gang of

his buddies to beat up a guy that made a pass at him in school?

[seabeyond]

13. more men trashing women. hey.. i am seeing a theme today.

i am certainly tired of it all.

[athenasatanjesus]

16. What other criticism could the right hope to find on Rachel nt

[Beaverhausen]

17. Rachel is so damn smart and FAIR, they have nothing else to try and criticize her for

I happen to think she is hot- all those smarts and so dang cute!

Tucker is an asshole.

18. Hm, I misread the last sentence...

...I thought it said: "Oh, by the way: earlier this week, The Daily Caller was admitted to the White House cess pool."

Which would have been about right.

One wonders, though, what these same people have to say about Mr. Cheeeeeney's lesbian daughter? Somehow I'm guessing it would not include taunts about her gender.

Of course, all of this is happening only because they recognize her as a threat. What they do not recognize is what a formidable opponent she really is. And that is because mediocre minds are simply incapable of recognizing their betters.

20. Tucker is such a bitch
