If you only watched Fox News over the weekend, you didn't hear about President Trump's widely condemned reaction to Robert Muellers death.
Fox has mentioned Mueller's death at least 6 times on TV without ever quoting Trump's "I'm glad he's dead" post...

Since then, Fox News has mentioned Muellers death at least six times on air without ever quoting Trumps celebration or all the outrage the post provoked, according to TV transcript database searches.
One of the only extended conversations about Mueller was on Trey Gowdys Sunday evening show, in which he and Rep. Jim Jordan discussed the political origins of the Russia collusion hoax. Trumps reaction did not come up.
Foxs omission was a window into how the pro-Trump network selectively amplifies or sidesteps his rhetoric depending on the moment.

even if Fox didn't show it to them they know about it.
