Conservative media’s outrage over Attorney General Pam Bondi saying she wouldn’t release more Jeffrey Epstein files appears to have been short-lived. After President Donald Trump stomped his feet and told his supporters to move on over the weekend, his base seems to have fallen in line.

An assessment by the journalism watchdog group Media Matters found that Fox News has largely stopped talking about Epstein over the past two days. By noon on Monday, the network had mentioned Epstein zero times, the group found. That’s compared to 46 mentions of former President Joe Biden in that window.

The morning wasn’t a fluke. By the end of the day, the tracking effort found that the network had racked up 158 mentions of Biden and only eight of Epstein, the disgraced financier who died in jail while awaiting trial on sweeping sex trafficking charges.
