The broadcast networks are loading up for another programming blitz on Monday (June 13) as the Jan. 6 special committee holds the second of what will be a series of hearings on the Capitol insurrection.
The special committee investigating the attack has made it clear from the day-one hearing Thursday (June 9) that it holds Donald Trump responsible for both fanning the flames of the the violence and not doing enough -- anything? -- to stop it.
According to various reports, among the witnesses for the June 13 hearing is former Fox News political editor Chris Stirewalt, who was the face of Fox's call of Arizona for Joe Biden during the 2020 election.
CBS News said Sunday (June 12) that Evening News anchor Norah O'Donnell will host a special report starting at 10 a.m. on Monday (June 13), both on the broadcast network and CBS News's streaming platform.
