If any of the January 6 Commission’s hearings are again scheduled to take place in prime time, it’s entirely possible that the networks will take a “hard pass” next time:

The Hill’s Joe Concha adds some context:

CNN and MSNBC were up because that’s basically the 1/6 Commission’s base, and no doubt they’ll be hoping for another hearing in prime time, but the networks certainly won’t.

The Left criticized Fox News for not airing the hearing (it was broadcast on Fox Business) but they did discuss what was going on during their regular programming.

Do you acknowledge biden is illegitimate on the seat he is assuming. He has no constitutional right to have been given the oath pledge.. he should not have been given any of the Presidential duties.. its all a sham ..its all a lie..
This has been a coup... and how did they pull it off!!!

The other side won’t fight.. the repubs lay down and hope they get by another time letting the commie dems rule and control.
Neither party gives a rats rear on legality, constitutionality. .. and today we are living under the edicts of a lost brain, but controlled by the snake in the grass.. Barry.

The dems are bad corrupted party..
The repubs disappoint me ..they are supposed to be the better party.. and they are failing us.. the nation.. and the process that made us great.

Nothing new, nothing revealed, no adversarial point-counterpoint hearing.

They took a page out of a Soviet style hearing that was used to criminalize political opponents. It was highly edited.

However, I wanted to thank Liz Cheney for inadvertently proving that Trump's speech indeed did not incite anyone. She forgot to read the admonition out loud but accidentally displayed Trump's Tweet to "go home" while explaining, falsely, that Trump desired to have the confrontation continue.

Politicians don’t understand that nobody cares if they were skeered that day.
People watching the streams were laughing at them. There were even people streaming that were laughing at Trump supporters and making fun of them because they looked like they were tourists taking a Capitol tour. Grandmas with flags just strolling through which is what they thought was happening when they got there and the door was wide open.

People mostly hate the critters in DC who vote themselves 21% pay hikes while the country and we citizens are being broken. I would not have shed a tear for that scum who hate us. The feelings are entirely mutual. Trying to make us get on their side for their phony democracy crap is a big fail.

They get more than their money’s worth with the MSM echoing the message for days at a time. In some ways better than having folks tune in to the nothing burger.

Just remember, when the GOP calls the January6thCommitteeHearings “old news”, they banged away on the Benghazi drum for FOUR YEARS and over the course of 33 hearings.

I forgot, too. Darn shame.

My friends forgot to include me in their careful analysis of Trump’s criminality also, because of my unfortunate oversight.

Even worse, it turns out my kids missed all my passionate reminders about why familiarity with Jan. 6 was essential to the future of Democracy; and the rascals missed the broadcast and went to work today without catching up on the exciting new information.

It’s like my whole family doesn’t care about helping Nancy Pelosi save our nation.

If I had wanted to watch children dressed like adults simper and posture for the camera I would have dug up old reruns of Honey Boo Boo.
