Carlson Ridicules Avenatti As “Creepy Porn Lawyer” After On-Air Promise “Not To Use Nickname” [VIDEO]

Mediaite reports:

Tucker Carlson interviewed Michael Avenatti Thursday night, but before the interview, he told viewers he would refrain from referring to Stormy Daniels‘ attorney as “creepy porn lawyer” as he has in the past.

“In the past he’s also demanded that we stop referring to him by a certain unflattering nickname,” Carlson said. “We haven’t agreed to that demand, but tonight as a gesture of goodwill we will not use that nickname, because we are always grateful when guests are brave enough to show up in person, including in this case.”

Despite Carlson’s on-air promise, “creepy porn lawyer” appeared on the Fox chyron throughout the show. At the interview’s conclusion, Carlson said, “Creepy porn lawyer, nice to see you.” Yeah, he totally owned that lib.

The extent there was any doubt as to the lack of professionalism of @TuckerCarlson or @FoxNews before tonight, there is no longer. What happened with the chyron tonight was a disgrace. Complete garbage – trash television. A new low.

Yes. After he told me that he was not going to engage in “name calling.” This is why so many people correctly conclude that @TuckerCarlson is a liar, just like Trump. https://t.co/y7ly56tIWy
