You are right. Live coverage of anything is kind of pointless to them, they would need to be told what to think of what they are seeing, first. I suspect FOX will provide them their thoughts, then show excerpts of the talk, later.

The people who watch Fox News cannot listen to a speech live!! They need a Fox News analyst to interpret it and tell them what to think first! That should be obvious by now.

Perhaps if Dick Cheney said it, it would be covered by Fox News.
silly and non-sensical.

Fox has hard news from 5pm central to 7pm central time.

lets see if they cover Obama's speech then.

And? I didnt listen to his speeches either.. See unlike you, I prefer to read the bills, rather than listen to the mouth service coming out of the elected officials. You dont mind being lied to, thats your problem, not mine..

"read the bills"??? Who is talking about a bill or bills?

Maybe, just maybe, I can analyze a speech and determine for myself what is consistent and inconsistent, what may be factually correct or incorrect. Maybe I don't need Fox "news analysts" to tell me what to think/believe. New concept, huh?

Fox did switch to Obama live. I know because I left the TV and went on my computer when he came on. I think it was during Cavuto's show.

You don't understand, people are weary of obama on TV, spouting the same old talking points.
That's why they turn to GB to fabricate new talking points?

Given that Obama is on TV more than any other president in history and rarely says anything worthwhile, or truthful, I am sure it was purely a business decision?
