CNN's Brianna Keilar shames Fox News for being upset about Christmas tree arson when they treated January 6 like 'not such a big deal' [video]

We’d like to think that Fox News’ competitors could put their animosity aside for long enough to unequivocally condemn the actions of the arsonist who set Fox News’ Christmas tree on fire.

We’d like to think that. But we’re not that naïve.

So color us annoyed and disgusted but not shocked at CNN anchor Brianna Keilar’s take on the fire this morning:

The Christmas tree fire at Fox was a serious incident.
Obviously it's incredibly scary to feel your work place is under attack.
Unless your work place is the Capitol.
Then, according to Fox hosts, it's not such a big deal.#RollTheTape pic.twitter.com/8kdsfzxFOn

Why is it so difficult to just say that arson is bad and wrong, even if the injured party is someone you disagree with?

What would hacks like Brianna Keilar do if the Capitol riots hadn’t happened? How would they suggest that Fox News was maybe just getting a taste of their own medicine? We’re genuinely curious, though we have faith that they’d find a way.

Clocking in faithfully at the CNN circus.

Hey you guys: the network that mostly ignored looting and rioting — save the occasional defense of Antifa, arguing they're justified — has thoughts about news coverage they're only hyperfocused on because they think they can use it to hurt Republicans. https://t.co/qhc3O19htJ

How old are you?!

More juvenile snark and condescending chyrons.

These people hate you. https://t.co/ttfpYuNKRN

Well, we’re not their biggest fans, either.
