I guess one could argue the reason they don't cover it is their audience doesn't care about it which would make sense as why would you cover something that your target audience isn't interested in. I would say much of what goes on in politics isn't actually reality just a fantasy cooked up for someone's entertainment. I'd like to think deep down no one actually believes this commission is actually going to accomplish anything as our government is nothing if not efficient in doing as much as possible while at the same time accomplishing as little as possible.
 
(The Guardian) As the January 6 committee was airing evidence, Andrew Lawrence entered an alternate universe, just by watching Fox News: On Thursday night as the Congressional hearings into the January 6 Capitol riot drew to a close, Tucker Carlson directed his outrage at a president he felt had lied and was not being held accountable for falsehoods that shook popular faith in the American democratic system. But he wasn’t talking about Donald Trump inciting rioters to storm the Capitol. He was talking about Joe Biden getting Covid.

Whilemillions of people last night tuned into America’s other TV news channels and heard testimony about what Trump did, or rather did not do, during the hours when the rioters stormed the Capitol, Fox News viewers saw the network’s primetime stars Carlson and Sean Hannity chide the “twice jabbed, double-boosted” president for contracting the virus they say he alleged couldn’t be caught with a vaccine.

As a news network they should report everything that is going on, not just pick and choose.
