Tucker Carlson Defended Statutory Rape in 2015 With Proud Boys Founder Gavin McInnes

The Fox News star dismissed his past defense of statutory rape as being ‘more than a decade ago.’ But more video shows he’s done it more recently.

Tucker Carlson, the 49-year-old Fox News primetime star, does not believe in treating women like men. In particular, as he told the founder of a designated hate group, he does not believe adult women who have sex with underage boys should be considered rapists.

“Here’s what I’m for,” Carlson told Gavin McInnes, founder of the Proud Boys, in a 2015 podcast interview (the video of that chat was uploaded in Jan. 2017). “I’m for treating women differently from the way we treat men. I’m not for playing along at all.”

Accordingly, Carlson argued, statutory rapes committed by men and women are incomparable.

It was an argument he also made in 2009 recordings revealed Sunday by liberal watchdog Media Matters—comments which he and his defenders have dismissed for being from “more than a decade ago.”

“It’s not even in the same universe, actually,” he said just two years ago, of statutory rape committed by women. “There are lots of things you have to play along with in life, and I understand society demands compromises,” Carlson continued. “But there is a limit beyond which I can’t pretend anymore. And calling—in this case, it was a 17-year-old kid—a ‘rape victim’ because a teacher, who wasn’t even that old, or married, was kind enough to initiate him into the ways of adulthood. I’m not just going to sit there.”
