I'm pretty sure that Foxnews was taken over.

It seems like Fox News put a stop on supporting the extreme aspects of Trump at the end of November though?
(Not supporting this horrible company that's responsible for so much suffering over the past two decades.)

Only when it became clear that Biden would win.

Hmm, how is Fox News/Breitbart/OAN/etc covering this...

I listened in on the Fox News TV stream an hour ago: They were interviewing moderate republicans calling for calm.

Patriot on XM radio is currently ignoring it, which is interesting, because they played Trump speech almost in its entirety. Guy was egging them on.
I guess they need to get talking points straight.
edit: One of hosts broke the silence. He compared it to BLM and called on CNN to call it fiery, but mostly peaceful. I could not help but to chuckle.
edit2: Even Trump got cold feet. He asked people to calm down. You can only play with fire for so long ( https://mobile.twitter.com/realDonaldTrump/status/1346928882... ).

Good question; I just looked at OAN and there is nothing, just an earlier article about Trump's speech and one from early this morning "Citizens Gather in Washington, D.C..."

I will never understand why pure statements of fact get downvoted on this site.
At the time I looked, 4 hours ago now, this was correct.
Maybe the next effective version will be hacking Facebook and Twitter, simultaneously...
