CHRIS HAYES (HOST): So what is their motive in all of this? Well, they're terrified of losing viewers, and that means losing money and power and status and position.
You know, in some ways -- and this stuff was so remarkable to me, I almost came crawling back to the studio to do it -- in some ways, the most revealing part of the story is the sheer, abject pathetic-ness of these people. Their cowardice, their groveling fear, a groveling fear that means they will do anything at all to keep their audience, to keep the money coming, to keep the power and prestige coming.
Rupert Murdoch made it extremely clear when he explained why Fox continues to give a platform to Mike Lindell. That's the pillow dude, the election conspiracy theorist who founded the pillow company that still advertises all over the network. "It's not red or blue, it is green." Mike Lindell's money is worth more to Fox than the truth.
