Senate Majority Leader Charles Schumer (D-N.Y.) on Tuesday blasted Fox News as “cowardly” for deciding not to televise the highly anticipated prime-time hearing later this week by the House select committee investigating the Jan. 6, 2021, Capitol riot.

“Few things obstruct the American people from hearing the truth more than Fox News’s cowardly decision not to broadcast Thursday’s hearing,” he said at a press conference after the weekly Senate lunch.

Schumer has been invited to appear on Tucker Carlson Tonight numerous times to explain and debate his positions, but always declines.

Who is the coward?

Cause the left wants a distraction from the fact that they are destroying the country ON PURPOSE..no one except 5 percent of the country which is comprised of far left lunatics gives a rats behind about Jan 6th..the rest of us have actual lives, ya know, worrying about gas almost being 9 bucks a gallon, food prices through the roof, crime out of control, cant find baby formula, ya know, things that actually MATTER

Every network airing this can never call itself “non-partisan” again.

And many folks here consider Fox as being part of the "deep state".

Fox sure isn't great. They aren't MAGA.

The phony January 6th Kangaroo Committee will indeed put on a show trial Thursday night. It will be broadcast on ABC, CBS, and maybe others - preempting the normal show schedule.

It will be produced by the former producer of Good Morning America. You can bet on sensational and highly edited video, Kyrons, three-camera shots, and maybe even music and a crowd reaction sound track.

I'm sure the prime actors will have cue cards and IFB earpieces. Kinzinger will once again cry on cue. This will be the best comedy since the Watergate hearings.

Judge? Check! Jury? Check! Executioner? They can only wish!

Maybe some Trump advisors will show up in leg irons.

The so called “select committee” is an illegitimate Dem run witch hunt and disinformation exercise.
Fox is going to continue to have great ratings as CNN/MSNBC ratings continue to collapse from showing this joke propaganda “hearings”.

The Jan 6 Committee is illegitimate. It has no authoratative subpoena power.

They did not follow the rules of the House by allowing the minority Part to select it’s committee members.

So, FOX has chosen not to participate in the vile, radical-Left Democrat show trial. Good.

Do people still watch network TV? Are there any shows with high ratings? Will those people who do watch be happy to See Chuck Schumer instead of whatever silly series they thought would be on? They need FOX to show it because they get more viewers than CNN and MSNBC combined.

“Few things obstruct the American people from hearing the truth more than Fox News’s cowardly decision not to broadcast Thursday’s hearing”

Do Democrats have that much trouble changing the channel to one of the 20 outlets carrying this sham show?
