Tucker Carlson Moves to Jersey

Posted on February 2, 2005

Tucker Carlson is switching news channels. The Washington Post reports that it's official: Tucker Carlson, formerly of CNN's Crossfire is taking a job at MSNBC and moving to New Jersey, where his new job is located. Carlson confides to the Post that he will retain his trademark bowtie and that he will miss the venison sausage Paul Begala brought to the studio every year. And what does the bow-tied wonder think of New Jersey? "When you live here, it's just Jersey." "I'm embracing every aspect of it. The Sopranos is a blueprint for life in New Jersey, as far as I'm concerned."

At least he hasn't lost his sense of humor. But he just laughed when asked if he was going to invite Jon Stewart to be a guest on his new show. I like MSNBC. I just never know where to find it on cable.
