In an interview with news website Outkick, the primetime host said he really hated reporters.
Carlson did not name specific journalists or media outlets.
Fox News host Tucker Carlson on Friday issued a fresh attack on journalists, describing them as cringing animals who are not worthy of respect.
In an interview with pop culture website Outkick, Carlson said mainstream journalists were small-minded, status-obsessed, insecure, not that bright, and just not impressive.
The primetime host also claimed that their work is not aimed upwards and that many reporters suck up to power. I just can t overstate how disgusted I am, not simply by the details of the lying of the medium, but disgusted by the emphasis, he said, according to the Guardian. The media is basically Praetorian Guard for the ruling class, the bodyguards for Jeff Bezos. That s the opposite of what we should have.

The Senior Editor
Trump is being tried before the US Senate, where many of the members are “fake people,” longtime Russian assets paid through accounts in the Cayman Islands. Many of them are “cuckoos,” or “walkins.”
Some senators are being threatened, not by militia types but by senior Federal officials from law enforcement related agencies. It isn’t about Trump, it’s about closing the door on where a real investigation of Trump would lead, not just to Moscow but back here, to four generations of fake people.
Sometimes they are called “Manchurian Candidates.” Many ask if John McCain was “turned” as a POW or if Trump was recruited by Cohn in the 70s or by Russia through his Ivana in 1987 as The Guardian implies.
