The article doesn't even include the words "ideologue" or "extreme" or make a similar claim.

Very weird and defensive response.

"But ultimately Carlson’s escalating toxicity, which included an undercurrent of white supremacy and a penchant for demeaning women and minorities, led Lachlan Murdoch, the then chief executive of Fox Corp, to pull the plug, the book says."

How obtuse are you being?

You are being deliberately obtuse. Unbearably rude and "extreme ideologue" are completely different things.

There are many Nice & Respectable people who are extreme ideologues. Words have meaning.

That's incredibly poor reading comprehension on your part.

> There are many Nice & Respectable people who are extreme ideologues

You can't actually be serious.

The Nice & Respectable Fox News crowd, that exiled Carlson, were just worshipping a "golden calf" idol of Donald Trump yesterday.

The underlying problem here is that you don't know what "ideologue" means.

Keep projecting

It really isn’t. The fact that it seems like people can’t use descriptive adjectives on HN is always so bizarre to me.

You should try using better description adjectives, like "rude", "racist", "uppity" instead of spreading misinformation.

The article says too big for his boots and part responsible for a $787m libel judgement. Also called Senior Executive Vice President for Corporate Communications a cunt. Doesn't mention idealogue.
