Wells is Senr Executive Producer of “Tucker Carlson Tonight” and also holds the tle of Vice Print of Tucker Carlson Digal Products.</span></p><p>“He’s been promoted to a level that no other producer has been sce, maybe, David Taboff at O’Reilly,” a former Fox employee told me, scribg how Taboff, who was at Fox wh Bill O’Reilly for 16 years, produced O’Reilly’s shows, all of his var specials and terviews, and oversaw his entire brand, cludg his merchandisg. </p><p><span>“I thk that Jt has</span><em> more</em><span> power than Tabby [Tabaff] ever had,” another former Fox employee, a former producer, untered. “And there’s not another show that out-rat .

If you want to ci how much time to give ntent on the most watched show Ameri--then I suggt you produce one the future.”</span></p><p><span>Before jog Fox News 14 years ago, Wells, </span><a href=" rel>as his Lked page scrib</a><span>, worked news at several lol TV statns, mostly Florida. He’d grown up St. Petersburg, and worked for statns Tampa, Miami and Wt Palm Beach. Colleagu remember him out on the gay nightclub and bar scene on Lln Road Miami Beach wh his boyiend of the time, also a TV journalist. </span></p><p>They both beme volved NLGJA, attendg events and travelg to nferenc, though the boyiend was, acrdg to the people, more volved. NLGJA, like many such groups, provis workg and nnectn, and a social life of gathergs and parti. (I’ve attend and spoken at NLGJA events on and off over the years; I have no rellectn of havg met or known of Wells or his then-boyiend.)</p><p>“I always felt Jt was a ltle more buttoned up. Timid. Not que as outgog as [the boyiend],” a member of NLGJA remembers, notg how sued them as a uple. “It’s one of those thgs where I jt saw them as a un.” </p><p>Even after jog Fox 2008, Wells apparently stayed volved NLGJA at least for a ltle while, before breakg up wh his long-time boyiend. But he’s not had any volvement wh the group for years, and certaly not sce jog Carlson’s show. </p><p>Some of those who knew Wells years past are baffled. A former Fox producer who socialized wh Wells and his then-boyiend remembers a “quiet du, unassumg,” addg, “if you would have told me 2008 [when we knew one another] that Jt would be the executive producer of the number one right-wg TV show Ameri, I would have said you’re out of your md.”</p><p>“It really blows my md that he — who he is as a person and what he do as a job — ’s beyond the spe,” said another former Fox employee who knew Wells, distguishg between those workg for someone like Carlson and others workg at Fox. </p><p>“I don’t know if he’s jt pletely bld by the money. It’s md-bogglg.” he said.</p><p>But not everyone is shocked. “It’s a very clear maniftatn of someone who showed their te lors,” said a person the dtry who is highly rpected, and who knew Wells for many years. This dividual was referrg to Wells sharg Carlson’s broar far-right views. “I’m not at all surprised. They are two peas a pod. Simpati.”</p><p>Still, ’s que stunng that Wells would work for Carlson, who has a well-known history of visceral homophobia. That’s somethg that me to light aga last year when beme known that Carlson had offered a tribute to Dan Whe, the assass of San Francis supervisor and gay civil rights lear Harvey Milk, his llege yearbook back 1991, as well as to the late vociferoly anti-gay Senator Jse Helms of North Carola, who whipped up homophobia durg the height of the AIDS epimic the 1980s. </p><p><span>I </span><a href=" rel>wrote about those jarrg revelatns when they surfaced last year</a><span>, as well as about what I dubbed Carlson’s “pathologil obssn wh homosexualy” throughout his reer. Carlson has exprsed revulsn at homosexualy, and one cint he reveled a vlent rponse. In a TV terview 2007 he scribed h</span><a href=" rel>avg smashed a man’s head</a><span> “agast the stall” a public rt room, after the man “bothered” him. </span></p><p><span>After an uproar, Carlson claimed the followg day he was “asslted” by the man, implyg was an act of self-fense. But fact, acrdg to his own scriptn, was not: Carlson said he’d left the rt room after the man had “bothered” him, and </span><a href=" rel>then went back wh a iend</a><span>, explag that they then “grabbed” the man and “h him agast the stall wh his head.”</span></p><p> Given the sentiments and cints, some might thk ’s bizarre that Carlson would even want a gay man such as Wells around him. But Carlson also has always reveled havg members of mory groups he bash standg up for him and agast the group, sort of like trophi — much as Tmp famoly asked, “Where’s my Ain-Amerin?” at a rally, and ed his iendship wh Kanye Wt the past as a way to claim he wasn’t racist. It’s certaly a power trip, havg the loyalty of that dividual who helps to legimize phg hate agast the group.</p><p>In that rpect, Wells, as a gay man, only embolns Carlson further. He giv him permissn to lnch the ugly attacks and helps Carlson validate, for himself (and likely for executiv at Fox News), the vrl he po. That mak Jt Wells’ prence as the powerful gay man behd Tucker Carlson all the more newsworthy. And all the more dangero.</p><div data-ponent-name="SubscribeWidget" class="subscribe-widget"><div class="pencraft ontend-pencraft-Box-moduleret--VfQY8 ontend-pencraft-Box-moduledisplay-flex--ZqeZt

Wells is Senr Executive Producer of “Tucker Carlson Tonight” and also holds the tle of Vice Print of Tucker Carlson Digal Products.</span></p><p>“He’s been promoted to a level that no other producer has been sce, maybe, David Taboff at O’Reilly,” a former Fox employee told me, scribg how Taboff, who was at Fox wh Bill O’Reilly for 16 years, produced O’Reilly’s shows, all of his var specials and terviews, and oversaw his entire brand, cludg his merchandisg. </p><p><span>“I thk that Jt has</span><em> more</em><span> power than Tabby [Tabaff] ever had,” another former Fox employee, a former producer, untered. “And there’s not another show that out-rat .

If you want to ci how much time to give ntent on the most watched show Ameri--then I suggt you produce one the future.”</span></p><p><span>Before jog Fox News 14 years ago, Wells, </span><a href=" rel>as his Lked page scrib</a><span>, worked news at several lol TV statns, mostly Florida. He’d grown up St. Petersburg, and worked for statns Tampa, Miami and Wt Palm Beach. Colleagu remember him out on the gay nightclub and bar scene on Lln Road Miami Beach wh his boyiend of the time, also a TV journalist. </span></p><p>They both beme volved NLGJA, attendg events and travelg to nferenc, though the boyiend was, acrdg to the people, more volved. NLGJA, like many such groups, provis workg and nnectn, and a social life of gathergs and parti. (I’ve attend and spoken at NLGJA events on and off over the years; I have no rellectn of havg met or known of Wells or his then-boyiend.)</p><p>“I always felt Jt was a ltle more buttoned up. Timid. Not que as outgog as [the boyiend],” a member of NLGJA remembers, notg how sued them as a uple. “It’s one of those thgs where I jt saw them as a un.” </p><p>Even after jog Fox 2008, Wells apparently stayed volved NLGJA at least for a ltle while, before breakg up wh his long-time boyiend. But he’s not had any volvement wh the group for years, and certaly not sce jog Carlson’s show. </p><p>Some of those who knew Wells years past are baffled. A former Fox producer who socialized wh Wells and his then-boyiend remembers a “quiet du, unassumg,” addg, “if you would have told me 2008 [when we knew one another] that Jt would be the executive producer of the number one right-wg TV show Ameri, I would have said you’re out of your md.”</p><p>“It really blows my md that he — who he is as a person and what he do as a job — ’s beyond the spe,” said another former Fox employee who knew Wells, distguishg between those workg for someone like Carlson and others workg at Fox. </p><p>“I don’t know if he’s jt pletely bld by the money. It’s md-bogglg.” he said.</p><p>But not everyone is shocked. “It’s a very clear maniftatn of someone who showed their te lors,” said a person the dtry who is highly rpected, and who knew Wells for many years. This dividual was referrg to Wells sharg Carlson’s broar far-right views. “I’m not at all surprised. They are two peas a pod. Simpati.”</p><p>Still, ’s que stunng that Wells would work for Carlson, who has a well-known history of visceral homophobia. That’s somethg that me to light aga last year when beme known that Carlson had offered a tribute to Dan Whe, the assass of San Francis supervisor and gay civil rights lear Harvey Milk, his llege yearbook back 1991, as well as to the late vociferoly anti-gay Senator Jse Helms of North Carola, who whipped up homophobia durg the height of the AIDS epimic the 1980s. </p><p><span>I </span><a href=" rel>wrote about those jarrg revelatns when they surfaced last year</a><span>, as well as about what I dubbed Carlson’s “pathologil obssn wh homosexualy” throughout his reer. Carlson has exprsed revulsn at homosexualy, and one cint he reveled a vlent rponse. In a TV terview 2007 he scribed h</span><a href=" rel>avg smashed a man’s head</a><span> “agast the stall” a public rt room, after the man “bothered” him. </span></p><p><span>After an uproar, Carlson claimed the followg day he was “asslted” by the man, implyg was an act of self-fense. But fact, acrdg to his own scriptn, was not: Carlson said he’d left the rt room after the man had “bothered” him, and </span><a href=" rel>then went back wh a iend</a><span>, explag that they then “grabbed” the man and “h him agast the stall wh his head.”</span></p><p> Given the sentiments and cints, some might thk ’s bizarre that Carlson would even want a gay man such as Wells around him. But Carlson also has always reveled havg members of mory groups he bash standg up for him and agast the group, sort of like trophi — much as Tmp famoly asked, “Where’s my Ain-Amerin?” at a rally, and ed his iendship wh Kanye Wt the past as a way to claim he wasn’t racist. It’s certaly a power trip, havg the loyalty of that dividual who helps to legimize phg hate agast the group.</p><p>In that rpect, Wells, as a gay man, only embolns Carlson further. He giv him permissn to lnch the ugly attacks and helps Carlson validate, for himself (and likely for executiv at Fox News), the vrl he po. That mak Jt Wells’ prence as the powerful gay man behd Tucker Carlson all the more newsworthy. And all the more dangero.</p><div data-ponent-name="SubscribeWidget" class="subscribe-widget"><div class="pencraft ontend-pencraft-Box-module__ret--VfQY8
