Michael Conway: Instead of information filtered through the partisan prism of cable TV and the internet, televised hearings would allow citizens to make their own judgments. - NBCNewsTHINK
If the Jan. 6 committee hearings were televised, American citizens could hear the unvarnished truth. The nine members of the Jan. 6 committee — including Cheney and fellow Republican Rep. Adam Kinzinger of Illinois, who voted to impeach Trump for his role in the Jan. 6 events — are of one mind: to get to the bottom of the effort to undermine the peaceful transition of power.
Other salutary effects beyond reaching more Americans directly would flow from televised hearings. Currently uncooperative witnesses would learn more about what evidence the committee has gathered about their potential legal exposure than they would in a closed-door session. Recalcitrant witnesses could then reflect on whether cooperation, rather than stonewalling, would be the better option.
