I'm an NBC guy myself for major stuff. CNN for everyday current events. I'll probably use NBC as home base and channel surf over to Fox News and MSNBC to check in on the celebrations and the pouting.
 
Whatever one I find first.
 
I'll probably watch them all a little just to see how they do. I'm looking for the latest in video graphics. I'm also curious on how our election is covered overseas.
 
CBS will be my main network but I will scan the cables. Since they stopped calling states until after 10 ET, I doubt I will watch much and then switch to Charlie Rose
 
I will watch FOX then turn over to CNN...I like to get the takes from both channels. But I am a FOX girl :mrgreen: I will most likely also visit MSNBC just to see if they are melting or getting tingles down their legs :popcorn2: I will also watch my local channels because of our local elections and propositions.
 
I'll probably get all the info here.
 
which ever i come to first 804 is typical the HD channel i type in first and then i just go up.

BUT ill definitely switch between FOX and MSNBC to watch nuts and loons hump footballs, pump sunshine and tell lies. LOL

To me both Fox and MSNBC are like Jerry Springer and Maury, how can a person watch either of them and not instantly feel better about themselves and be thankful that they aren't as mentally retarded, inept and dishonest as the people they are watching. Both those networks are mainly for entertainment and nothing else and if you cant see that . . . psst . . . . you are part of the problem and biased yourself ;)

You put Sky News but ignore C-Span?
 
I'll probably flip back and forth between CNN and MSNBC. I generally like the coverage on CNN better because they give more airtime to conservatives, whereas MSNBC just has Steve Schmidt and virtually no one else. But at the same time, CNN annoys the piss out of me more than MSNBC does, for other reasons. Namely, the fact that they constantly trot out their high-tech toys and try to make themselves the focus of the story...and the complete intellectual vapidity of Wolf Blitzer.
 
NBC and CNN mostly, but all of them in between.

MSNBC is IMHO a more accurate opposite of Fox News. That's not to say CNN doesn't lean left, just that MSNBC is more blatant about it. Outta be a fun night regardless.

Oh snap, forgot to list PBS and cspan. PBS was running ads today saying they're at risk this election, visit some website to learn more.
 
Definitely MSNBC. It will be very entertaining to watch the collective breakdowns of all those far-lefties all in one spot. :)
 
Cspan...........I like their polls and live viewer comments.............. without all the spin. :shrug:
 
I will be going with Fox News.
 
I'll probably watch either CBC or Al Jazeera.
 
Is there a difference? :shrug:

JK........I know the Canadians get it right at least 47% of the time.

Well it will be in favour of Obama considering Obama hols 84% and Romney holds 7% support in Canada. We also think the Republicans are just a bunch of crazy people.
 
Go figure.........so do I. :lol:

Who holds the other 9%..............Dan Aykroyd?

Third Parties: Green, Justice, etc.. Though we hate the Libertarians though since Libertarianism here is dead for the most part.

Do people really just tune into one channel and leave it there?

Are they actually watching tv or is it on just for background noise?

You Canucks just don't like much of anything anymore do you? Apparently we're having a difficult time living up to your high standards down here in the lower 48. :lol:

I agree, MSNBC and FOX are definitely hands down the Dumb and Dumber of news.

Your not Liberal enough, we might like you after you elect Democrats for a few decades.
