The January 6 committee's latest primetime hearing further divided conservative media with some outlets publishing scathing rebukes of the former president.
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.
"Trump didn’t lift a finger to stop the violence," the Post said, "it was incitement by silence… as a matter of principle, as a matter of character, Trump has proven himself unworthy to be this country’s chief executive again."
The Journal says Trump, rather than calling the military or Mike Pence, who was hiding with his security detail, "fed the mob’s anger and let the riot play out… Character is revealed in a crisis, and Mr. Pence passed his Jan. 6 trial. Mr. Trump utterly failed his."
