Fine. Her campaign - not mine. Being a highly vocal leader on Jan 6 has tanked her in the polls. Last night was not her first rodeo on this. But if she thinks doubling down is the way to go- go for it. Just as a little reminder, she is running in the primary, not the general election there, for now. No doubt she has lots of dem votes, but she has to get to the general to get them.
Fox did the whole of Tugger's show without a commercial break hoping to keep people from switching over to the hearings. Buy1 doing such a bang up job with the Streisand effect though.
Here's how Fox and Newsmax tried to spin the January 6 committee's first prime-time hearing https://www.cnn.com/2022/06/10/media/fox-newsmax-january-6-reliable-sources/index.html
You are looking to CNN for a report on how Fox did? Too bad Chris Cuomo missed out on that. You remember Chris, right? When I was channel surfing I saw that CNN had George Conway sitting at the table to comment on Trump and Jan 6. Heh, they are a pubic hair away from going totally broke and being bought out.
Carlson, and Hannity after him, were spinning it like crazy. I occasionally turned the channel to FOX for a moment or so at a time, and there really must be a multiverse since their version of the hearing had absolutely nothing to do with what was actually happening at the hearing. Regardless, now that they're really putting the magnifying glass to Trump I hope he burns like a bug.

Speaking for Fox News, Tucker Carlson announced that, although other news outlets will air hearings about the insurrection at the United States Capitol, Fox will run Hillary Clinton’s eleven-hour testimony about Benghazi in its entirety. When her testimony concludes, Carlson said, the network will show it again, on a continuous loop. The Fox News host explained that the network had made the decision to skip January 6th coverage because “our responsibility to our viewers, first and foremost, is to keep them up to date on what’s going on with Benghazi" Carlson indicated that there was one scenario in which the network would cut away to the January 6th hearings. “If, in the course of those hearings, new details emerge about Hillary Clinton’s role in Benghazi, Fox News will be there,” he said "
