We have our share of juvenile public humour, making fun of other countries is very much part of the genre like it's an inside joke. I didn't find this broad shot offensive - I think at a point in time where the US has enough image problems world wide, not knowing your neighbours isn't exactly being a shining light on the hill. And that means both sides of the border. Thanks Mark fixed.:^) A bit sophomoric of me to mix his name up.

Tucker is his first name, even though it looks more like it should be the other way around. Every country has its share of fubars and snafus; it's sophomoric to make fun of minor mistakes elsewhere. However, sophomoric humor has its following, moreso than we'd all like. I think the US commentator in question is named Tucker Carlson, not Carlson Tucker as you had it in your part of the piece.
