The Fox Network is not showing Celebrating America

I am not talking about the FoxNews cable channel. The Fox Network, home to the Simpsons and the Masked Singer is not airing tonight's celebration. All other networks are airing this.
Because they don't believe in America.

For those who asked, Murdoch still owns it.

Until then I won't watch any Faux channels except local. And they should change their names too.

Fuck Fox!!!!!!!

The justification seems to be that some Democrat somewhere said something mean about a Republican.

And today during the inauguration they showed their regular programming.

Personally I was glad to take a break from all the festivities and catch an hour of People's Court.

Again, that particular Fox channel is not Fox news.

And for some of us it's good to have an alternative.
Heck I might even switch over to ESPN.

Made an OP about it, but it kind of hacked me off that ABC and CBS weren’t airing the presser.

But you can be sure that we’ll get Chris Christie’s valuable “analysis” of it later on...

Name that Tune are on the Fox Network tonight. I can turn to PBS, CBS and NBC to name three if I want to see Celebrating America. Is there a reason that the Fox Network needs to deviate from their normal Wednesday night programming? I don't mean to be snarky but it isn't like people will have difficulty finding Celebrating America if the want to see it. I am just confused.

He's the same man who displayed a bust of Lenin (Russian revolutionary) in his dorm room, and who STILL openly supports various liberal policies in his home country of Australia.

Yet he's given the USA decades of right-wing lies.

None of them are carrying it either.
They are all going with regular programming.

If you’re in the Mountain or Pacific time zones your local stations won’t air it until prime time.
