How Fox News personalities amplified divisions, disinformation around Jan. 6

Text messages sent to Mark Meadows on Jan. 6 came from some of President Trump’s closest allies, urgently requesting him to stop the siege on the Capitol. Some of those allies included key Fox News personalities, like Sean Hannity and Laura Ingraham, who later that day suggested the crowd was not made up of Trump supporters. Judy Woodruff discusses with NPR media correspondent David Folkenflik.
