What TV station will you watch on election night?

[charlyvi]

I'm torn between a fair, balanced, just the facts station like C-span (do they cover the election?). Or, a station like Fox or CNN, who will be spinning their heads as the Kerry numbers come in. Any suggestions?

[RockaFowler]

1. Does CSPAN have coverage

I was wondering that, too. I think PBS has coverage. They may be a balanced show to watch.

[vetwife]

6. C-span will have coverage of so I was told ....

[gp]

2. watch fox.

you'll want to see their faces melt away once they concede a kerry victory...

[charlyvi]

4. That's what I was thinking.

I don't watch Fox as a rule, but won't it be fun to watch the meltdown when they have to call JFK "President Elect Kerry". Sweet!

[LiberalAndProud]

3. I will be listening to Air America Radio.

[Doctor_J]

7. same here

just like i did with the debates. When Kerry is declred the winner, I will likely switch on CSPAN to watch the worldwide celebrations.

[charlyvi]

10. I"ll watch it on TV because

I want to see the US map when the states go red or blue. Mainly blue.

[southern democrat]

5. CBS , I owe it to Dan

[linazelle]

50. ditto nt

[high density]

8. CBS because I love the Ratherisms

He was a riot four years ago.

[charlyvi]

11. Yes, I remember during the GHWB/Clinton race,

he was on CBS with Ann Richards. They kept me laughing all night. Good choice; I think I'll watch DAN.

[ramapo]

9. I won't watch anything until Kerry is declared the winner

Then I'll watch all the whores babble away.

[ayeshahaqqiqa]

I'm with you

I can only get CNN, and don't want to watch until the nation has gone blue for Kerry.

[Steelangel]

40. Ditto

I don't think I can handle watching the states turn into blue or red or numbers of popular votes on TV until Kerry is declared the winner. Once he does, I will watch the CNN or Foxnews.

[thinkingwoman]

12. will the daily show be on?

Jon Stewart is a god.

[undercover_brother]

13. Fox News Channel. I can't wait to see them try to spin the loss into a win

[DODI]

14. None -- I'm going to Boston!!!

See the man in person!

[charlyvi]

15. Show Off!!!! eom

[Cha]

29. Well, I'm going to Washington D.C.

on Jan 20th for Kerry's Inaugeration! :kick: :dem: :kick: :dem:

[MADem]

47. Me too--I'll be there with bells on n/t

[Daisey Mae]

16. I will be listening to Air America Radio and....

running through the news channels and closely watching Fox Crappola collapse as they welcome JFK as the new President Elect.....Bye Bye Bush.....

[Guava Jelly]

17. cspan only

screw rnn msrnc and faux

[HFishbine]

18. Cartoon News Network (eom)

[seraph]

19. CNN

I want to watch Wolf Blitzer say that Kerry has won the presidency, and * has lost.

THAT will be entertainment.

It was a toss up with Brit Hume though, but watching CNN capitulate will be spectacular.

F-CNN.

[charlyvi]

21. Do you think Leslie can do it?

Or will he have a raging catatonic episode where he lives in an alternate dubya reality? Will they have to bring Olbermann in to cover for him?

[seraph]

28. I dunno but it will be fun to watch!

:evilgrin:

F-CNN

[Cha]

31. Or can russert on GE/nbc?

I'll be happy when all those mediawhores realize what a Democracy is.

[seraph]

41. You know...

When we are done with Sinclair, we REALLY need to focus on CNN.

Same thing, same tactics.


John Stewart rules! I would trade a year's salary to be able to say what he did on CNN air.

[Cha]

43. I've been wanting to concentrate on

cnn for a long time..ever since I cancelled my cable news ..the day after the 2002 election.

I was pissed ..I got out of bed that morning and called my cable company.

I know that some need to watch for reconnaissance but some of us boycotted.

Mass demonstrations in Atlanta and Washington D.C. at cnn headquaters might accomplish something.

[txindy]

20. C-SPAN if it has coverage

I'll channel-surf among the others if it doesn't. I was really hoping to be here on DU like when the debates were being televised. It kept me going. ;)

[Cha]

33. I will definetly be on DU, too!

Unlike four years ago when I was hyperventilating alone in my apartment!

[txindy]

48. I hear you! I was a wreck all night. And the next night. And the next.

It was the never-ending election in 2000. **sigh** No, never, again! We'll all meet up here and take turns being cool, calm, and rational. LOL! ;)

[kohodog]

22. None, I'll be curled up rocking in the corner.

[onager]

24. CNN...just to see Candy Crowley...

Harpooned and beached.

[seraph]

34. Ouch! Bad Visual! (nt)

[Cha]

35. After the 2000 election night..I was

to be found curled up on my bed in fetal position!

[SammyWinstonJack]

37. LOL

I don't think I'll be able to watch any coverage. I'll just hang out here.

[omnithrope]

23. c-span (if there's coverage)

Looks like a lot of us feel the same way.

[footinmouth]

25. Good Question

I was wondering that myself. I was so disappointed after the debates with MSNBC. I usually like that station, but they were just awful. I was flipping around and actually found the most balanced debate coverage on Fox of all things. Whoever suggested Rather had a good idea though, except that it will be interrupted by a lot of meaningless local races. Town supervisor races seem to get decided with little or no fanfare.

[PretzelWarrior]

26. all of 'em. I'll look like I'm in a news control room. wall of video.

CNN, CSPAN, ABC, PBS, Cartoon Network (instead of Faux News), MSNBC, CBS, NBC....can't get enough of that "Kerry landslide" talk.

[Cha]

27. C-span...they better cover it!

Four years ago I watched(naively) all the usual suspects ..no more!

[seraph]

30. On second thought...

I might not watch at all. I might log onto freerepukelick and watch masses of freeptards talk about the "end of the world" and "what it all means" or "did Jesus leave us??"


WOO-HOO!

:evilgrin:

[AntiCoup2K4]

32. I'll be watching FAUX News

So I can watch Sean Hannity and Brit Hume crying :evilgrin:

[Connie_Corleone]

36. I'll watch C-Span if they cover it...

Then when Kerry is declared the winner, I'll turn on Fox News and lurk on FreeRepublic to see the weeping and gnashing of teeth!!

:evilgrin:

[Shopaholic]

38. CBS

I love Dan.

[Arkana]

39. I want to watch Brit Hume have to say "President-Elect Kerry"

If that doesn't make his head explode, nothing will.

[shivaji]

42. With 20,000 lawyers waiting in the wings, we will not know who won

until 4-8 weeks later, and the SCOTUS will decide who won.

[indigo32]

44. NOOOOOOOOO

Dammit they are starting early to avoid that. I don't think any of us could handle another 4-8 weeks.

[doubleplusgood]

45. C-SPAN (video) + Air America (audio)

[Kathleen04]

It depends on which comes in better.

[George W. Dunce]

52. I can not wait to Tivo

Bush's concession speech on Fox"News". I will watch it over and over and over and..........

[tilsammans]

53. CBS, primarily

Love Dan! Love those folksy sayings!

[Bad Thoughts]

54. Whichever one is on in the campaign office ...

... I'll be making calls until 10pm

[marlakay]

55. Local channels and cable, blogs & AAR

I will change channels to see what they are all saying, be on computer and listen to AAR.

But...I plan to try if humanly possible not to watch the whole 24 hours of the day, it will drive me totally crazy. So I will be nuts because I know I can't stop myself!!
