So how did that go?

Apparently that's as far as they got:

Fox News quickly cut away from Hillary Clinton's speech as she called for people to reject Trump's big lie about the 2020 election pic.twitter.com/AOEwZlRI92

Hillary Clinton has been mentioned at least 37 times on Fox News/Business today, many of them alluding to the speech she was going to give in NY and promising coverage of it. But as soon as she started speaking truth about Republicans and Jan 6 they cut away.

Did FoxNews really think Hillary was going to announce her candidacy for 2024?  Are they that far gone up their own stovepipe?

I still remember "serious journalists" in the Obama Administration defending FoxNews having a place in the White House Press Room. I'll agree there's entertainment value in watching Jen Psaki fillet Doocey with the skill of a French chef, but was it really worth it in the end? Where are those "serious journalists" today, and will somebody ask them how they defend their positions now?

it's a shame Fox didn't carry this part of Hillary's speech https://t.co/6MGXfPlcB4

I’d subscribe to pay-per-view to watch that trial.
