He doesn't come from big money. The Swanson connection was his step Mother, and her family sold their position way back in 1955, (Tucker was born in 1969).
$30 million, isn't bad, if ya ask me, (only one functional brain cell n' all).
He is very unique, and I enjoy his perspective. I don't get to watch him much, butt the YouTube vids are fun to view.
I'm amazed he can survive in this nasty environment with his spicy commentary.
The Marxist knives were out for Bill O'Reilly, and eventually took him down. Carlson is far more vocal, and his survival thus far is surprising, (especially with the younger Murdock having input at Fox).
