The dealership, Lee Carlson's Main Motors, has been operating since 1919, and is still open.
Controversy
On Fox & Friends, during a January 10, 2007 interview with Dan Bartlett, Counselor to then President George W. Bush, Carlson labeled Democratic U.S. Senator Ted Kennedy a "hostile enemy" of the United States, "right here on the home front." Bartlett replied "Well, we don't view Ted Kennedy as a hostile enemy. We do view him to be an open and often critic of the war. He has been from the very outset. I don't think that's anything new." Keith Olbermann chose her as that day's "Worst Person in the World" on that night's broadcast of his show Countdown,[14] while Howard Kurtz of the Washington Post called it "the Fox News exchange of the day", and asked, "Doesn't the Constitution allow for dissent?"
In response to several on-air instances in which Carlson stated that she had googled the meanings of certain words (including "czar", "ignoramus", and "double-dip recession"), comedian Jon Stewart pointed out during a December 2009 episode of The Daily Show that Carlson had an accomplished academic background and accused her of deliberately playing down her intelligence to her audience.
