I know this isn't a Fox forum, but since Sean is such a big part of Fox....

I am watching the OPD funeral on the internet today and have Fox News on in the background. I noticed that they gave about 10 seconds coverage on the funeral for these fallen officers, but dedicated an entire segment to the Dallas cop who pulled over the NFL player. They devoted more time to a bobcat in a bar and a stolen parrot than these officers. Very sad coverage!

I thought Fox News was better than this, but apparently not. I am very frustrated with the extreme lack of coverage on this tragic event. The biggest loss in Law Enforcement since the Newhall incident in 1970’s (except 9/11).

Fox needs to do better and make up for it by providing more thourough coverage later today. The 4 officers that made the ultimate sacrifice deserve at least that.

you watch something in the background and assume that's all the coverage?

switch over the MSNBC and see how they cover it.

Glad you find humor in it. I have Fox News on for about 80% of the news I watch. I am a supporter, that's why I expected more of them.

This attack is not out of the woodwork! I just expected more!

That is correct, I can do more than 1 thing and be cognisant of what is happening.

No thanks! But if they covered it, I'll give them props!

Thanks to the internet I was able to watch local programming on KTVU.

I'm just shocked at the amount of time given to much less important stories and that was the point I was trying to make.
