If you haven't been following conservative media for a long time, you might not know that there have actually been many eras of Tucker Carlson. He launched his career in print journalism before landing under the bright lights of Fox News in 2009. That's where he developed his super power – giving his audience exactly what they want, and <a href="https://www.nytimes.com/2022/04/30/us/tucker-carlson-gop-republican-party.html">feeding some of their worst impulses again</a> and <a href="https://www.newsweek.com/tucker-carlson-fox-news-gypsies-trump-immigration-640004">again</a> under the glossy veneer of respectability. New Yorker staff writer Jason Zengerle first met Carlson back in the 1990s and has been following his career ever since. His new book, "Hated by All the Right People: Tucker Carlson and the Unraveling of the Conservative Mind," examines Carlson's evolution and the media's. We spoke with Zengerle about Carlson's past and what his shifting priorities reveal about American politics.And in headlines, the House narrowly <a href="https://apnews.com/article/government-shutdown-ice-funding-471e55ba4c3247051739ee1b50b2857a">passes a</a> spending bill to end the partial government shutdown, Renee Good's brothers <a href="https://thehill.com/homenews/senate/5721103-citizens-share-ice-assaults/">testify</a> before Congressional Democrats, and a U.S. fighter jet <a href="https://apnews.com/article/us-iran-drone-shot-down-military-634f406a5bb416b7a1a8bec8cc72b4b8">shoots down an Iranian drone</a>.Show Notes:</div><ul>
