A revelatory, jaw-dropping portrait of Tucker Carlson’s career and a Zelig-like story of reinvention: from insider to populist, from respectability to insanity, the story of how the right-wing media lost its mind.

New York Magazine writer Jason Zengerle's eye-opening narrative follows Tucker Carlson's infamous journey from gifted young intern at New Republic to the noxious talking head we've all witnessed on Fox News. In the tradition of Our Man and The Loudest Voice in the Room, Zengerle examines how Tucker Carlson's Zelig-like career offers a unique lens into the confusing, myopic, and utterly shameless evolution of American conservatism, its media presence and punditry, from the 1990s to the present.
