Fox News' James Comey Countdown Clock is Using Tenths of Seconds
By Kyle Koster
Fired FBI director James Comey is testifying before the Senate Intelligence Committee at 10 a.m. It’s one of the most anticipated events in recent American history. The three major cable networks have been employing a countdown clock since Monday but it appears only Fox News is committed enough to use tenths of seconds like a diligent basketball timekeeper.

Incredible development. So totally unnecessary but, at the same time, it just feels right. Have to wonder if there will be some sort of two-minute warning graphic.
UPDATE: The numbers appear to be ascending? What kind of clock is this?
