Related: Editorials & Other Articles, Issue Forums, Alliance Forums, Region ForumsWhile MSNBC and CNN are following every movement of the British Queen's coffin, guess who
is covering the White House briefing right now?
Fox News.
While MSNBC and CNN have been saturating their airwaves with Queen Elizabeth, Fox news has been focusing on Biden and Inflation and Biden and crime, etc.
The funeral's not till Monday, and it looks like two of the major cable stations have decided to sharply cut coverage of US news in the interim.
But not the Murdoch station. It's still on Biden's case and the Queen's death isn't stopping it.

The combination of Christianity and monarchy kind of creeps me out.
Two massive grifting mythologies joined in union. Bleah.

(6,252 posts)I know some DUers are not happy with MSNBC or any other network. They want people to talk about what they want to hear all the time. Good luck with that.

It would be fine to give occasional updates, but to cancel the news like this is just poor programming.

(9,949 posts)... time. I noticed, during Jen Psaki's time, FOX was covering the briefing much more than the regular news networks. I also saw, on social media, many Trump followers loved watching the briefing - thinking she was funny. And, FOX would show an edited clip of Doocy seeming to look "strong" and getting the best of her... when it wasn't what I saw. They really edited the clips... she ranked him and they "fixed" it so he looked in control. They think the same about Karine Jean-Pierre. Tuckums often makes fun of her briefings.
