On Wednesday afternoon, the Fox News Channel’s Outnumbered Overtime dedicated a full, four-minute-plus segment to the latest NewsBusters study by research analyst Bill D’Agostino, which quantified at the liberal media’s ongoing obsession with anonymous sources through the lens of the impeachment inquiry.

Host Harris Faulkner began by noting that “a new study finds the broadcast news networks relied at least in part on information from anonymous sources while reporting on the impeachment inquiry” and that the study found the broadcast network evening newscasts used “more than 300 minutes of airtime” to cover impeachment.
