One would think that tonight, with Joe Lieberman and, more importantly, Wesley Clark giving speeches, CNN would cover all the speeches at the convention. It turns out they had other ideas. I mean, there were pundits to interview! Willie Nelson's to talk about! I didn't know what Josh Marshall was talking about when I first read his post, but then I checked Newshounds...
Tonight they aired only the Kerry speech. That makes them just as good as Fox for the evening. How disappointing. I was watching on PBS, which has done a fair job of covering the events. I wanted to watch on C-Span but for some reason I don't get it on my tv. Don't hold it against me. Most of the time I had PBS on tv and Air America on the radio, with Janeane and Sam doing a mightily impressive job broadcasting for five hours a night. Mad props go out to them. Word? Update: It is my duty to inform you that the object of my outrage was probably not Josh Marshall's post topic. His topic was more about this, from Conntexdem on DailyKos: Those idiots had the convention director's mike pumped in over their coverage and the guy kept yelling "Drop the damn balloons! Jesus! LEt more confetti go!!" And on and on. It was just shocking. Those bastards.And this is from Jwills also on the thread: Woodruff and the idiot sitting next to her were going on and on about how Kerry didn't mention his time in the Senate at all.It turns out they're even worse than I thought. Much worse. Please, for the love of humanity, don't watch CNN. |
