Fox host uses new Pentagon study to address military personnel behavior patterns

Early this year Pete Hegseth appeared on Fox news discussing a Pentagon-backed research project (which caught media attention due to its findings about service members)

During his Jan 4th broadcast Hegseth - who is Donald Trumps choice for Defense Department leadership - referenced a tv-screen headline that stated: Study Disproves Military Extremism Problem. The host used this research to address questions about service-members involvement in the capitol events from about 4 years ago

The Pentagon-funded analysis showed some interesting data points; military personnel extremism rates match those found in regular population groups. This research helped answer long standing questions about armed forces behavioral patterns: findings indicate no extra risk factors exist within military ranks when compared to civilian statistics
