So I’m assuming that Sinclair will be demanding that Tucker apologize and donate and that the FCC will be threatening to cancel his podcast.

Probably, but it’s smart to take allies where you can find them. A lot of right-wingers pay attention to Carlson, and his stance is hitting where left-leaning sources have no pull.
While his general rhetoric may be aligned, his engagement is driven by people that want validation against those “elite libs” that are saying things they don’t like.
Without those voices in the room, even if there’s an audience that agrees with his words, that audience doesn’t need him anymare.
Plus if successful at turning us from our allies based on misplaced motivation, they would just lie about those motivations more to us. Then lie to the other side about our own motivations for stuff we agree with them on.
