Can’t it be both? And I just love an actual bigot like Tucker crying about bigotry. White privilege does exist. Any white person who denies it is just personalizing it. To deny white privilege is to deny reality.

As white privileged as he grew up, Carlson didn’t graduate from college, did he? He simply used his connections to get what he wanted.

Carlson was born in San Francisco, California. He grew up in Carlsbad, a suburb north of San Diego. He is the elder son of Richard Warner Carlson, a former Los Angeles news anchor and U.S. Ambassador to the Seychelles, who was also president of the Corporation for Public Broadcasting and director of Voice of America.[2] His adoptive mother is Patricia Caroline Swanson (born 1945), former wife of Howard Feldman and an heiress to the Swanson food-conglomerate fortune.[2][3] He has a brother, Buckley Swanson Peck Carlson.[4] A great-uncle was Sen. J. William Fulbright.[3]

He attended St. George’s School, a boarding school in Middletown, Rhode Island. After graduation, he majored in History at Trinity College in Hartford, Connecticut.
