They planned it carefully
Chris Hayes did a great job exposing Fox’s perfidy and corruption in “covering” the January 6th Committee this week. It was even worse than I knew.
Three million people saw their broadcasts. Over twenty million saw the actual hearing. But the entire Republican party backs the Fox version of events and they will amplify it and continue to validate it as the counter-narrative of Trump’s coup. And using their institutional power in the states and the courts, they could overwhelm the truth and maneuver their way back into power.
