Fox News Channel Startup/National Anthem, 2013
- hace 3 años
Fox News Channel now dips into the past to start its broadcasting day; at about 4:58, prior to "Fox and Friends First", the channel now airs a sequence of patriotic images, set to the strains of The Star Spangled Banner (or the national anthem). This, of course, is a modern take on the old SSB sequences that aired on braodcast stations across the country at sign-on and sign-off.
Not sure when this debuted, but Fox and Friends First was a recent addition to the schedule, so it likely coincided with that program's debut.
As far as political meaning, well, read into this what you will. Whatever you think of the channel, Fox News has long relied on patriotic imagery for its promotions and graphics.
