Why did FOX TV only show the end of Cheryl Crow singing The National Anthem?

Question

This action was repugnant. This national event should not be replaced with TV commercials. I looked for a means to email FOX TV but was not successful. Can any of you help?

Answer 1

I heard the song in its entirety - - the producers choose in a live broadcast whether they will focus on shots of the performer, the audience, the honored guests (Hall-of-Famers), and the other visual shots available (flags, Stealth aircraft) and so on. . .try emailing your local FOX TV station and talk to an audience/consumer person about your gripe

Answer 2

Because they knew you would be mad.

Answer 3

it's cheryl crow, everyone knows she sucks, and fox knew that nobody wanted to hear her crappy singing
