Oh....I see people are watching ABC also (NOT). I wonder how low the MSM ratings will be during this time. Shocked

I am going to stick to the internet and avoid the talking heads. Although I must admit I have no access cable and am currently monitoring the precinct reporting from a Kinkos. Smile

Listening to Talk Radio here -- while monitoring the blogs and Yahoo elections results page. They play good oldies music in between election talk. Alphabet networks? Who needs 'em? Twisted Evil

Media bias alert! Exclamation


Ed Gillespe on ABC NEWS with Peter Jennings. Gillespe was explaining provisional ballots, and that typially only a small percentage are deemed valid. Gillespe offered 25% as an estimate, which would not be nearly enough to make up the difference in Ohio.

Jennings response?

"What's your point? Are you saying that the Democrats are trying to do something that doesn't meet your approval?"

And Jennings had a really annoyed look on his face when he said it. Just thought I'd share. Cool

Man, I wish I'd seen that!

Worth the price of admission, I'm sure! Very Happy

Thanks for sharing what some of us didn't see.

This was essentially confirmed by 1 of the 2 GOP members of the 4 member Ohio Elections Commission a short time ago. While they may anticipate some type of DNC legal challenge, the "provisional ballot" issue is, for all intents and purposes, mathematically moot.

Being that I didn't watch abc,nbc,cbs,msnbc, or read the nytimes,La times,
I would venture to say that if any of the above read these posts on this forum, they would read about news they never heard about.. Confused The reason I come here, and watch Fox news, is because that's where the honest news is... Wink

I think Jennings question is dumb...Ed explained the provisional ballots, as they are...Majority of them are illegal ballots...The low ABC ratings I think are showing, in jennings question and facial expressions... Laughing Sounds to me that Jennings was quick to condemn Ed... With the bias MSM, and the bias hosts, it's hard to remember what's right and what's wrong... Wink
