They're carrying Elijah Cummings' speech live atm, and the chyron is actually reasonable.

They just cut back to the pundit types, and I was shocked that pundit #1 is actually a black female, not a bleach blonde. Pundit #2 is a blonde female, of course. P1 just said ok, why haven't we heard anything about the racial makeup of the officers? And how has the fact that the mayor being black made a difference?

Pundit 3, white black-haired male, now saying the problem is 'trust' in the justice system and the police. Also adds, 'We'll see tonight whether it stays peaceful now or turns to riots again.'

(Edit: P2 (blonde female) and P4 (black haired white female) now talking a lot about race and want to know whose 'fault' it is that we don't know what race the six officers are.

30 seconds in, the Fox hosts were blaming President Obama for comments he made Tuesday.

followed up with 'The President has fanned the flames on racial issues'.

Gotta hit all the talking points.

flames are being fanned by the murder of blacks by police, not anything Obama says.

talking about how the foundation spends money like water flying the Clintons all over, and how Chelsea is completely covered in designer apparel, which, I guess, is meant to suggest the Foundation pays for her clothing? Or maybe just that she gets paid too much to manage it. (And they suggested she doesn't actually do much.)

Next up after commercials is some boxing match.
