I don't care about cable, except Cspan, heck, they'd probably all talk during the whole debate, anyway. But will everyone in the United States be FORCED to watch because, say, Fear Factor is pre-empted?

1. If Bush agrees to debate, which is debatable, they are all
supposed to televise the debates. I prefer to watch them on C-Span. Then I know who said what without it being slighted or embellished.

Will cover all of what Shrub says but if it is evident that Kerry is giving SHRUB a dose of humulity they no doubt will try and break for a station break....or adjust their SAT dishes.....

4. Try 5 Broadcast Outlets
Someone's showing their age here...

Expect the debates not only on ABC, CBS, NBC...but also the regular Fox (Simpsons, NFL) Network and PBS...remember them?
