“‘Jeopardy!’ Fans React to January 6 Committee Clues”
Two harmless clues on the Wednesday, July 6, episode of the long-running game show had some Jeopardy! fans wondering if the show was getting political. Both clues related to members of the January 6 Committee, Liz Cheney and Bennie Thompson.
The clues appeared under the category “The Representative From…,” the first being, “Wyoming: This woman starting in 2017, taking the seat her dad had won nearly 40 years before.”
Contestant Yungsheng Wang buzzed in with the correct answer, stating, “Who is Liz Cheney?”
This was followed by the clue, “Mississippi: Bennie Thompson who chairs the select committee investigating the events of this date in 2021,” which was quickly answered by contestant Alicia O’Hare, who correctly said, “What is January 6th?”
“#January6thCommittee @BennieGThompson was just an answer on #Jeopardy …right after Liz Cheney was an answer. People are paying attention,” tweeted one fan. Meanwhile, a less enthused viewer wrote, “There’s now a Jeopardy question about January 6th. Ugh.”
