This story was first reported on Big Head DC.
UPDATE, 6 p.m.: Tucker Carlson released this statement today, clarifying the molesting incident:
Let me be clear about an incident I referred to on MSNBC last night: In the mid-1980s, while I was a high school student, a man physically grabbed me in a men’s room in Washington, DC. I yelled, pulled away from him and ran out of the room. Twenty-five minutes later, a friend of mine and I returned to the men’s room. The man was still there, presumably waiting to do to someone else what he had done to me. My friend and I seized the man and held him until a security guard arrived.
Several bloggers have characterized this is a sort of gay bashing. That’s absurd, and an insult to anybody who has fought back against an unsolicited sexual attack. I wasn’t angry with the man because he was gay. I was angry because he assaulted me.
Original report, August 28, 9:21 p.m.: To shocked reactions and snickers from Joe Scarborough and Dan Abrams tonight on MSNBC, conservative talker Tucker Carlson recalled that he was approached as a teen by another male to perform sexual relations in a Georgetown Park bathroom.
When asked how he responded to the situation, Carlson said he asked a buddy to help him beat in the accoster’s skull. And they did!
