INSTANT NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER

From the host of Tucker Carlson Tonight on Fox News and the New York Times bestselling author of Ship of Fools, a collection of nostalgic writings that underscore America’s long slide from innocence to orthodoxy.

Thirty years ago, Tucker Carlson got his first job out of college fact checking for a quarterly magazine, and he went on to write for many other publications before becoming the primetime Fox News host he is today. In The Long Slide, Tucker delivers a few of his favorite pieces—annotated with new commentary and insight—to memorialize the tolerance and diversity of thought that the media used to celebrate instead of punish. In snapshots spanning the 1990s to today, he’ll take you on a visit to Africa with Al Sharpton and members of the Nation of Islam to stop the civil war in Liberia in 2003, inside the (not-so-) secret armies of Operation Iraqi Freedom, and on the campaign trail with Donald Trump in 2016. In case you missed it the first time around, you’ll also learn about the aesthetic merits of British colonialism, the second shift at a baked bean factory, the unexpected charm of James Carville, and the simple beauty of rural western Maine.

With his signature wit and 20/20 hindsight, Tucker investigates in this patriotic and memorable collection a question on all of our minds: Has America really changed that much in recent decades? The answer is, unequivocally, yes.

Dissent and Free-Thinking Are No Longer Allowed In Journalism

Reviewed in the United States on August 30, 2021

Verified Purchase

Tucker Carlson---the host of 'Tucker Carlson Tonight' on Fox News and 'Tucker Carlson Today' on Fox Nation, and a number one New York Times bestselling author of 'Ship of Fools'---is the best and most influential journalist in America today. Tucker is a truth teller, a free thinker, a clear writer, and cares deeply about America. In this entertaining book, Tucker showcases his clear writing, sharp wit, and love for America via a collection of magazine stories he has written over the years. The overarching theme of the book is that journalism has changed dramatically in the 30 years since Tucker joined the business. In many cases, journalism has become propaganda. Journalists are no longer truth tellers. They are activists. Dissent and free-thinking are no longer allowed. They are penalized. Journalists openly censor ideas they don't like. As it relates to current events, the most important part of the book is the introduction. Tucker describes in detail how Simon & Schuster, the publisher of this book, and other publishers have been corrupted by the woke movement. Publishing houses used to stand for unfettered truth, free speech, and the marketplace of ideas. They now stand for far-left politics and censorship of right-leaning authors and ideas. In particular, Tucker discusses in detail what transpired at Simon & Schuster after January 6. Tucker was at the time under contract to write this book. Simon & Schuster cancelled the publication of Senator Josh Hawley's book---The Tyranny of Big Tech---for partisan political reasons (Hawley's book was subsequently picked up by Regnery Publishing and became a bestseller---it's a must read. As they say: Go Woke, Go Broke). The cancellation of Hawley's book by Simon & Schuster deeply affected Tucker. He called it an ominous sign for free expression and for America. So he decided to interview Simon & Schuster's CEO Jonathan Karp and Publisher Dana Canedy. It was an eye-opener. He discusses that interview in the introduction. Karp and Canedy couldn't answer basic questions about why they cancelled Hawley's book. That tells you everything you need to know about the state of publishing in America. Journalism and publishing have been hijacked by woke mobs. As Tucker puts it, "if small-minded partisans had been in charge, I never could have stayed in the business. As [sic] this point, people with my opinions can't. They've been driven from traditional journalism."

A great read - informative and personal. Labelling TC a "right wing extremis" is absurd. Asinine.

A Delight in Every Way!

Reviewed in the United States on November 3, 2021

Verified Purchase

Every sentence in this book is beautifully written as we've come to expect from this author. For those of us who missed many of these stories the first time they were published, this is a much appreciated reprieve.

From stories of childhood feats of danger which cause every mother’s heart to beat a little faster upon reading them, to tales of interactions with notable political figures and his time with some questionable characters from whose adventures we readers are more than happy he was able to extricate himself in one piece, this book was both an entertaining and informative adventure.

Tucker Carlson is nothing short of a treasure to many of us. Now having received the gift of the content in this book it’s back to Ship of Fools for my second read.

Thanks, Tucker!

I appreciate the self deprecation , not what I expected

Reviewed in the United States on November 4, 2021

Verified Purchase

Tucker starts out with a story about Al Sharpton and a trip to Africa with him and the Muslim brotherhood, which was funny, insightful and honest and I found myself thinking "well thats different "and gave me a different (more positive) perspective on Sharpton. Each chapter covers a space in time, which paints with clarity the past, (recent past) vs the censored narrow world we live in today.
He gives no lectures, no ideological views just a nostalgic look back (not that long ago) at when people talked, disagreed but didnt hate or try to destroy people they disagreed with.
Tucker really covers a large range of subjects, and there was only one chapter I could not get into, which I am sure was on me as it held no interest for me.

I enjoyed reading this book, in 2 days. Tucker's take on biased liberal journalism is right on. And I enjoyed his magazine articles from the past that I was unfamiliar with, very entertaining. I recommend it!

Felt like a different Tucker than TV

Reviewed in the United States on September 18, 2021

Verified Purchase

The Tucker Carlson that wrote this book and the Tucker Carlson that you see every night on FOX news are two different people. The author version of him has insanely good wit and a really diverse Rolodex of people and experiences to write about from his years of political journalism, and some just from his everyday life. Overall he crafted this book with the professional ability of an actual comedian writer and had 0% of his normal right-wing propaganda that he puts out on an everyday basis. A strong recommend just to get to know the real Tucker Carlson, and forget about the TV version.

Unexpected Journey with Tucker who is now a trusted friend

I spent 20 years looking askance at Tucker and his bowtie . I believed that he was not a serious reporter, who had a serious view on life. My mistake. This is the first time I have read his work, and this slice of his life presented over 20 years has me anxious for more, and happy to know that whatever Tucker sends my way is the truth, and meaningful as his well lived life..... more to come I am sure.

Informative and Insightful Reading from Seasoned Journalist

Reviewed in the United States on February 21, 2022

Verified Purchase

I've always enjoyed Tucker Carlson. I was blown away when I read his book. He went In-depth with some of the names of today's politics on both sides of the aisle. He even covered many issues in his 30 years of journalism. It is dying off thanks to people's feelings and the lack of critical thinking.

This is a must-read if you want to read good journalism from a professional

Loved it

Reviewed in Canada on October 3, 2021

Tucker is the best. I was initially disappointed to see it was a collection of magazine essays he'd written over the past 30 years but quickly realized that was the point; most of them may well have been written in 2021.

5 stars. Please write more books, Tucker! Ship of Fools was excellent and The Long Slide had proved a terrific follow up.

Introduction Alone Worth Buying This Book

Reviewed in Canada on August 10, 2021

Verified Purchase

Tucker is in full illumination mode on the evolution and sad state of the reporting, editing and publishing industry. Incredibly powerful doesn't go far enough, Tucker's clear, cutting introduction is reason enough to buy it, read it and support his thesis. Thoroughly enjoyable, Tucker takes us back to the era of free speech, free thought, and the absence of media cowardice.
