None of the Big Three networks' evening newscasts on 30 January 2015 covered the shooting of an American citizen in eastern Saudi Arabia earlier in the day. A Friday item by Reuters reported that "a vehicle carrying two U.S. citizens came under fire in the Eastern Province district of al-Ahsa, one of the main centers of Saudi Arabia's minority Shi'ites, SPA said, citing a police statement."

Fox News Channel's Amy Kellogg gave a full report on Friday's Happening Now to the possible terrorist attack in Saudi Arabia.
