Congress’ January 6 select committee is holding its first public hearing since the summer and its final televised one before the midterm elections on Thursday, Oct. 13.
The committee’s ninth public hearing was originally slated for late September, but committee members decided to postpone it due to Hurricane Ian, which was decimating the west coast of Florida at the time.
Similar to previous public hearings, the national TV news outlets will broadcast the proceedings live. NBCU News Group (NBC News, MSNBC, CNBC) released their coverage plans last week, and more networks released their respective plans this week, including CNN, CBS and ABC.
