On a chilly Christmas Eve, why not warm up with a hot media fight between Fox News' Tucker Carlson and Teen Vogue writer Lauren Duca. Mediaite calls Friday night's interview—video here—a "mesmerizing and fierce back and forth," while Uproxx says it was "kind of ugly" and "infuriating...no matter what side you're on." Duca was being grilled about her statements that it's right to criticize Ivanka Trump for her "sinister complicity" in supporting the "most anti-woman candidate in decades"—though Duca admits that criticism shouldn't come in the form of harassment in front of her children. Carlson takes a "mocking tone" throughout the interview and seems more interested in attacking Duca than her ideas, leading to her declaring him a "partisan hack." Carlson ends the interview by telling the Teen Vogue writer: “You should stick to the thigh-high boots. You’re better at that.” (More Tucker Carlson stories.)
