Teen Vogue writer Lauren Duca gets rape threats after heated Fox interview about Ivanka TrumpAssociated Press (via South China Morning Post)
The two went toe-to-toe in what became gripping television, with Duca at one point calling Carlson a partisan hack intent on not allowing her to speak. Carlson, making reference to pop culture stories Duca had also written, ended the segment by saying Duca should stick to the thigh-high boots. Youre better at that.
Duca has been re-tweeting several of the messages shes received, even with a twist of humour: correcting the grammar, for instance, of someone who wrote your a scumbag whore.
As a woman online, she said shes experienced sexist attacks before, but never on this level. It feels Victorian, she said. Its very bizarre to experience this firsthand.
What the hell is wrong with people?

Another emotion the coup of 2016 has stirred up in me is that I must re-experience the lunatic, fascist rantings of dicks like Tucker Carlson. (Isn't that--a DICK--what Jon Stewart called T.C. so accurately so long ago? When douche bag Carlson was on CNN? Or was it MSNBC?)
He, and others like him, just won't go away. Despite republicans/fascists being so wrong about everything, every time.
When did this jackass get back on the air? Why isn't he still toiling away in obscurity at his stupid fail website, fake organization?
WTF?
