Responding to yesterday's post, Tucker Carlson tells TCG via email that "no 'Republican activist' ever poured a drink on my head."
The New York Post had a slightly different report at the time of the alleged incident: that a female Republican operative threw her glass of wine in Carlson's face after Carlson had a disagreement with her boss. TCG concedes that, stylistically, pouring your drink over someone's head and throwing your drink in someone's face are two different things. Having a drink poured over your head is humiliating, while getting wine dashed in your face at least has some racy flair to it, like a scene in "Dangerous Liasons," or whatever.
At any rate, TCG wasn't there when it happened, though she heard about it from a reliable source at the time. She's sorry if she got her drink-pouring and drink-flinging confused. Readers can decide for themselves if Tucker Carlson deserved, or even experienced at all, any kind of angry contact with someone else's alcohol, though in cases like this, TCG likes to quote Clint Eastwood in "Unforgiven": "We all have it coming, kid."
