I think the storyteller is important.  I want the people who tell me stories to actually believe the stories they are telling me.  And in the case of Tucker Carlson, it has been proven that he did not believe the stories he was telling.

Two extremists having a debate is not a way to get at the truth, because neither one will ever admit that the truth is somewhere in between.

As for the idea of having Crossfire with Lemon and Carlson, one is an idiot and the other is a liar.  There's nothing to be gained from putting those two on a show.  Firing Line with William Buckley is the model of the show I would like to see.  Most people in this message board are too young to have seen those but that show had actual intelligent discussions.
