Media conservatives split over testimony against Trump, some strongly defending him
Fox News
The Jan. 6 committee's surprise testimony has shown cracks in conservative media over Trump's actions and future. But the testimony is also raising questions.
Howard Kurtz is the host of FOX News Channel's MediaBuzz (Sundays 11 a.m.-12 p.m. ET). Based in Washington, D.C., he joined the network in July 2013 and regularly appears on Special Report with Bret Baier and other programs.
But after the compelling testimony by Cassidy Hutchinson, the former top aide to Mark Meadows, some are engaging on the substance.
In Fox prime time, Laura Ingraham said: "I spoke with some former White House staffers, three or four of them in the afternoon, and they knew her well. And not one person had anything good to say about her performance today…And as their surprise witness testimony blows up in their faces, there's another problem for the Democrats. It turns out the voters just don't care about this January 6 charade."
