So Fox News will not cover the hearings live but they will wait until afterwards to comment on them.

[Botany]

aka They will watch the hearings, set up their counter narrative stories, and then
broadcast "their coverage" after the hearings are over and 80 + % of Fox News
watchers are asleep.

"Fox News Channel’s primetime programs will cover the hearings “as news warrants.”
At 11 p.m. ET, Fox News @ Night anchor and chief legal correspondent Shannon Bream
will anchor a two-hour live special joined by Baier and MacCallum for news analysis
through 1 a.m. ET."

Jan. 6th 2021 was about the attempted overthrow of our Constitutional Democracy by violence,
massive law breaking, and hundreds of people including a sitting President went right along with
that. Spin that Fox.

thanx to DUer EndlessWire for the link

1. And you're surprised? Not me. What is surprising is why they intend to do this at all.

[Botany]

3. "And you're surprised?"

Not at all. Jan. 6th and the things leading up to it and afterwards are some of the
most important events in America's history and Fox knows just how damning the
story will be and in the end there will be no way to spin "it."

BTW Fox was a co-producer in the Jan. 6, 2021 attempted coup.

2. Why is there so much discontent about one channel not showing it?

There are at least 7 or more other channels to chose. I promise that you will find it on other channels.

10. Their audience needs to see it, they're the problem.

4. "We report, you decide" was always a phony slogan.

Truth is... 'We decide what spiteful bullshit to stuff down your gullet that will profit us and control low-information masses'.

[Botany]

6. On 1/4 or 1/5/21 the morning blond on Fox said, "Lots of people still have questions about ...

... the election." Fox was actively selling "The Big Lie" to the rioters.

BTW I just happened to see the morning blond push that propaganda when I was channel surfing
from CNN or MSNBC up to the weather channel.

[Claustrum]

5. This is how propaganda works.

You don't let the people listen to "news" or information on their own because they would come up with their own idea or opinion about the subject. You first craft your "opinion" and repeat your "opinion" a thousand times with all different hosts. Then your "opinion" is reinforced into people's mind no matter how ridiculous, stupid, or distorted that "opinion" is.

[Torchlight]

7. It wouldn't do to allow their viewers to watch it in real time

before Fox editorial can decide what their audience's opinion is going to be.

Their reliance on the lowest common denominator of the market as an audience is a quirky, but effective model.

[kentuck]

8. I can imagine the debate that went on before this decision was made.

How can we claim to be a credible news source if we simply ignore stories, they may have asked?

At least we could "pretend" to be covering it?

[MissMillie]

9. A good Fox "News" viewer has to be told what to think.

They want to tell their viewers "what happened" rather than letting the viewers see for themselves.

[dem4decades]

11. They've learned from Bill Barr, tell people what was found, or what you

Want them to think what was found.

13. We live in the "Upside Down" variant of the multiverse now...

Their hate is easy for them..... we just have to get louder....

[Botany]

14. Roger Ailes' idea behind Fox was that Nixon didn't really do anything wrong but it was just the ...

... liberal media that made him look bad which in a large part he got run from office. Ailes and Murdoch
developed Fox News in order to spread lies, propaganda, and to get a certain % of Americans angry at
people they disagree with. Fox is a cancer on America.

[FarPoint]

15. You are spot on!

People just would not believe it when folks like us back even in the 90's and would explain that this is what was happending....Now, we have an F-5 Tornado of media spin/ manipulation...

[Botany]

16. Fox News co-produced the 1/6/21 atttempted violent coup with their lies about the election's results

But they tried to "un-ring that bell" after things went bad on 1/6/21 by saying the results of the
2020 election were valid.

[JHB]

17. They have alternative programming lined up...
