That's big for that viewer.

I just don't know that it's that much of a difference. I don't watch Fox - hell I don't watch cable news other than the past week. But my understanding is always been that the news division is a bit biased but not completely out to lunch, while the opinion hosts live way out in Crazytown. So that viewer will hear Cavuto say, "there's no evidence of that that we have seen", and then keep watching until Laura Ingraham comes on and informs that same viewer that she has video that hasn't been released yet of democratic operatives in the vote tally room filling out ballots for Joe Biden. And that will be going on for at least 3 hours tonight, and every night.
So yeah, Cavuto was fine there, no complaints about what he did. But I'm not sure it's as impactful a statement as you're suggesting.
