Joy Behar Claims Tucker Carlson Is ‘Almost Irrelevant’ Because He Has Three Million Daily Viewers. The View Has Fewer Than That.

The View’s Joy Behar has been known to bloviate about herself with a uniquely self-absorbed style of speaking, but it seems that she reserved her most head-scratching comments for Tuesday as she claimed that Fox News’ Tucker Carlson should be considered “almost irrelevant” because his television show only attracts three million viewers each night. Based on some recent Nielsen ratings, The View has a much smaller audience than Carlson, which must mean she thinks that her respective show is totally irrelevant.

The Washington Free Beacon flagged that Behar dabbled into some media history on ABC by bringing up the fact that anti-Semitic radio host Fr. Charles Coughlin, in a country of 127 million, had between 30 to 40 million listeners of his radio program. For comparison, “Tucker Carlson has, in a country of 326 million people, he has three million listeners … he’s almost irrelevant.”
