When Mitt Romney spoke to the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People's annual convention on July 11, Fox News aired virtually the entirety of the speech live -- more than 23 minutes of airtime.

The network's mid-day news show aired only 1 minute and 30 seconds of Biden's approximately 27-minute-long speech live before cutting back to co-host Jon Scott telling viewers that the speech was being live-streamed on Fox News' website.
