Chris Wallace, who left FOX News to be a failure on CNN, thought he was being clever and snarky by criticizing Tucker Carlson’s interview of Putin last week.
Tucker’s interview has probably been viewed more times in a matter of days than Wallace’s CNN show has been watched since launching, but that point seemed lost on the CNN host.
Wallace has always thought of himself as the smartest guy in the room, despite evidence to the contrary.
CNN’s Chris Wallace could barely conceal his distaste for former colleague Tucker Carlson’s softball interview with Russian dictator Vladimir Putin this week.
The two media personalities worked together at Fox News and there was no love lost between them, with Carlson once referring to Wallace as “a bitchy little man.”
“Tucker Carlson showed up in Moscow to interview Vladimir Putin. It turned out to be anything but an interview,” Wallace said Saturday. “Putin droned on for two hours and seven minutes while Tucker sat there like an eager puppy. Occasionally, but rarely, he got in a question.”
