Montel Williams Responds to ‘Idle Rich’ Tucker Carlson After Fox Host Notes Williams and Kamala Harris Dated

Montel Williams responded to Tucker Carlson on Friday after the Fox News host again noted that Williams and Vice President Kamala Harris once dated two decades ago. ....

Williams, who retired from the Naval Reserves with the rank of lieutenant commander and was an intelligence officer, added, “Tucker would have you believe he discovered Putin was up to no good in Ukraine yesterday. Maybe he’s the wrong guy to assess the competence of others?” ....

“I got where I am without being an heir to a fish sticks fortune,” Williams told Mediaite at the time, referencing the family of Carlson’s stepmother, who is an heiress to the Swanson frozen food empire. “I grew up in the wrong part of Baltimore and succeeded nonetheless. Would Tucker be where he is if his dad hadn’t married a fish sticks heiress?”

Speaking to Mediaite on Friday, Williams said, “Tucker isn’t able to get ratings without dog whistles.”

In 1979, Carlson's father married divorcée Patricia Caroline Swanson, an heiress to Swanson Enterprises, daughter of Gilbert Carl Swanson and niece of Senator J. William Fulbright.[33][51] Though Patricia remained a beneficiary of the family fortune, the Swansons had sold the brand to the Campbell Soup Company in 1955 and did not own it by the time of Carlson's father's marriage.[52]

I worked for Charles Price, the husband of Carol Swanson Price. They had Price Candy, several cafeterias, American Bank, Swanco Broadcasting in Tulsa (that was Carol's brother's business).

Charles died a few years back but I think Carol Swanson Price may still be alive.

The Prices were huge Republicans. Charles was the Ambassador to the Court of St. James .
