"Do you remember what the hottest topic on Fox News was this summer? If you guessed a more than 40-year-old theoretical framework for understanding the impact of structural and systemic racism, called critical race theory, you are right. In June, the term was mentioned 993 times during Fox News programming, including overnight rebroadcasts of daytime and prime-time shows. In July, it was mentioned 921 times. That was after being mentioned only 132 times in all of 2020. But the network seems to have largely moved on from critical race theory, which conservative activists and right-leaning media companies identified as a pressing threat as part of a backlash to the calls for greater attention to racial disparities that followed the police killing of George Floyd last year."
"In August, however, critical race theory was mentioned only 325 times on Fox News. And in September, the theory was mentioned only 150 times on the network's programming. The drop has also been pronounced on Newsmax and One America News (OAN), two conservative upstart channels seeking to outflank Fox News Channel to the right. Critical race theory was mentioned 930 times on Newsmax in June but only 242 times in September. The theory was mentioned more than 1,000 times on OAN in June but only 208 times in September" – Washington Post.
