Many of you are asking how you can help me. My only ask is this: Spread the word about the threats to democracy and how we can fight back. Tell everyone to subscribe to Democracy Docket and share its content. Thanks. https://t.co/7W0yoPHmq2

Today's July 4 TV coverage is nonpartisan in nature, and intentionally so. But President Trump's plan to speak on the National Mall is a... complication. Will TV networks show Trump's remarks live? Should they?

I wrote about this topic for @ReliableSources. The takeaway: The major networks are not turning Independence Day into The Trump Show, even if the president might want that. Patriotic performances and huge fireworks shows are taking precedence.

News organizations have to assess how newsworthy Trump's speech might be. But that's not really a factor for NBC and ABC, since tonight's coverage on those networks belongs to the entertainment division, not news.

NBC has a long history of televising the Macy's fireworks in New York, and ABC has a Ryan Seacrest special in Nashville planned for tonight.

The CBS special is being led by CBS News, with "CBS Evening News" anchor Tony Dokoupil and "Entertainment Tonight" co-host Nischelle Turner anchoring from 8 til 11 p.m. Eastern from a prominent perch on the National Mall.

A CBS press release promises "star-studded concerts and performances" from coast to coast, "culminating in what organizers are calling the largest fireworks show in history over the skies of Washington, D.C."

A CBS executive source shot down a rumor that the network might take Trump’s speech live in full; the source said the network might show a brief portion of the president's remarks, but the plan doesn’t call for anything more.

Musical performances and fireworks are the CBS production priorities, with plans to show live events in NYC; L.A.; Philly; Montclair, New Jersey; Fayetteville, Georgia; and Gadsden, Alabama, among other locations.

Of course, the fireworks in DC will have to wait until the political speeches are over. Figures like Pete Hegseth and Marco Rubio will be speaking on the Mall before Trump (and no, the broadcasters will not be airing those, either).

One of the suspected reasons for the late fireworks start in DC actually has to do with the TV coverage. "In past years, the show has started around 9:15 p.m.," Washingtonian noted, but officials are anticipating a 10:30 p.m. start time this year, causing some families to decide to stay home.

Trump's speech had been slated to begin at 9:45 p.m. though he wrote today that it'll be "around 10." His late start seems influenced both by the number of other, earlier speakers and by the timing of fireworks shows in other cities, several TV network sources told me.

Waiting until 10 to speak means Trump won't be competing with the New York fireworks telecast. Or Boston: CNN has a special pact to show the Boston Pops Fireworks Spectacular this year, so CNN says that will be a "signature" part of its coverage, though CNN's press release also notes that the DC festivities are a "focal point throughout the day."

CNN anchors will be in four cities tonight, with Dana Bash and Boris Sanchez on the National Mall, and a source says CNN plans to take at least a part of Trump's speech live, though it'll be a balancing act given all the other live events that will be happening across the country. I'm told NewsNation is also planning to air Trump live.

The calculus is different for a news network like CNN versus a broadcaster like CBS, since prime time on CBS is usually for entertainment. (CBS News will stream Trump's speech in full, I'm told, and so will NBC and ABC's news streaming channels.)

In general, some networks are centering their coverage around the DC event much more than others. For instance, Fox News is promoting five hours of DC coverage, with five top hosts — Bret Baier, Harris Faulkner, Sean Hannity, Brian Kilmeade and Dana Perino — all emanating "from the main stage at the event."

Fox's show will seemingly be subject to the president’s whims, and their audience likely won’t mind.

Surprisingly, the Fox broadcast network isn’t doing anything special to mark July 4, unless you count an MLB baseball game in prime time.

PBS is doing lots – but this year it "won't be airing the fireworks show from the National Mall, as it has for decades," CNN's @zbyronwolf noted. "Instead, PBS will air its July Fourth broadcast from Colonial Williamsburg."
