January 6th Committee live and only MSNBC is covering. A meaningful announcement

[Evolve Dammit]

and no other outlets? Makes me wonder if the "public testimony" in a few months will be similarly marginalized?

[UTUSN]

1. Now? What was the announcement?

[spanone]

2. criminal referral of Navarro & Scavino

holding them in contempt of congress....

[PA_jen]

4. What Rep Lofgen read was freaking Scary and prove how involved Trump was in all this.

Where is AG Garland? I am sure he has all this evidence and more we have not heard of.

[Ocelot II]

3. It's a procedural announcement regarding contempt recommendations

for Navarro and Scavino; it's not a substantive or evidentiary hearing. That's probably why it's not being covered live everywhere.

5. Just a very small fraction of adults in the US watch cable news

And that includes Fox.

NBC News, ABC News, and CBS News each have more viewers then all the cable news networks combined .

6. Raskin is 🔥

[C_U_L8R]

9. Raskin had me standing. Wow what an impassioned indictment.

[RussBLib]

11. passed 9-0

love Raskin.

At least 3 of them urged the DOJ to do its job.

12. Mini closing argument.

[RussBLib]

7. twice now the cameras have switched to 2 bald guys

who, sorry, kinda look like thugs to me. Do we have Proud Boys attending this hearing? Intimidation, perhaps?

I do hope security is tight.

[C_U_L8R]

10. That was weird. Who are those guys?

[Hoyt]

8. The Committee lost momentum last summer by not quickly

following up riot videos, guards’ testimonies, etc.

[brooklynite]

13. The watergate hearings were covered by only one network at at time.

The others had their regular game shows and soap operas.

You can’t force people to watch it (and most people won’t). If people have an opportunity it’s that’s all that’s necessary.

14. I think the first week they all covered it live

Then they started alternating. Remember though, there were only three networks at that time. Viewing was quite limited.
