Hey if you’re wondering what happened to the last headline-only story that said “Fox News to carry Thursday hearing uninterrupted” then the answer is we fucked up and misread the tweet, rushing to post the headline on what would’ve been a surprising development.
Fox News is NOT airing the Thursday night hearing uninterrupted and will instead do the same splitscreen with the hearings on mute format as they broadcast Tucker Carlson and Sean Hannity’s propaganda shows as they did during the first primetime hearing in June, the New York Times reports. Smaller sister network Fox Business News will carry the hearing live. The smart money also says that Fox News will again not have any commercial breaks as to prevent viewers from channel surfing and watching the hearing on CNN or MSNBC. Can’t have that happening.
