Putin was interviewed in detail by a US journalist for the first time since he started the full-fledged war against Ukraine almost two years ago

And in the next paragraph, he’s a “television personality.” I mean the second one is more accurate, but sloppy reporting and editing nonetheless.

You don't have to be a good journalist to technically be a journalist

Journalism is a skilled profession that covers things like properly sourcing articles. Something Carlson could never be accused of. He’s a personality and nothing more.

By that logic I'm a neurosurgeon.

Well other than the fact that you haven't (presumably) done any neurosurgery

I've concussed at least three people over the years.

Tucker claimed on the record he is not a journalist. Fox News claimed on the record they are not news. Then they go in to act like they both are. Fox News should have news removed from its name and Tucker should present himself as he claimed.

Ah yes I have that on my watch list for later. A wild ride of transparent questions and unhinged, unrelated responses.

It's this weird experience when you laugh at a war criminal who is one of the richest people on the planet. Who tells the absurd unrelated history of Eastern Europe instead of answering questions.

Even Carlson was weirded out by this. He spread Russian propaganda for years and now this drunk uncle comes along and ruins it all for him.

Check out Tucker Carlson's face in this one

What?? Does tucker actually make a different face than "perpetually confused"?
