They probably assume a good chunk of their audience is people not really paying attention, or who tuned in halfway. For someone watching all day it's repetitive, but for someone who just showed up it's fresh. If they did something deep that needs context, the people who arrive 35% of the way through are going to be lost.

    Yea I just had it on for noise myself but at some point I thought “haven’t they already gone over this” and then it was like seeing something you couldn’t unsee.

    It makes sense to have that “drop in” aspect but it really makes me wonder about people that do just sit and watch Fox News all day. I think after 3 or 4 days I decided music or silence was better.

    How many times can you get angry about the same news story over and over?
