I really think it was just optics - they felt it would have looked bad to go hard on a big story and ignore Bush's corpse, especially since he's being propped up as the greatest American to ever have lived. I think people are reading too much into what was probably a straightforward exec decision. If I'm right, the story shouldn't go away. We should know by early next week at the latest.
Fox still walks the line of political correctness in the end.
Fox has never covered the Bush family accurately. So basically by default, they're roped into the same BS narrative that's being run on the rest of the MSM. That's why I think it was simply due to optics and we shouldn't shit ourselves unless the story doesn't resurface soon after the bloated POS is in the ground.
