CBS till it got past midnight was the best coverage out of all of them.

Huh. Well, I watched SeeBS just because it was SeeBS and I wanted to see what it had become. One thing sure, I'm rarely going to be tuned that that channel anymore! (Not that the teeeveee is on oftn, anyway...)

Currently there is a huge (HUGH!) controversy between CBS News and the Kerry campaign. Kerry says Bush won the election, but CBS has refused to concede!!!!

I switched between channels, staying mostly on Fox, but when I paused at seeBS, I had the distinct impression that ole Danny Blather knew that no one was watching.

Hey ... at about midnight I turned to CBS just to watch Rather wrangle with the angst of mounting dispair. I've never enjoyed watching him more than last night.

I took a peek at Dan at about 2AM est and he looked shell-shocked. He was standing there promising that CBS was embarrassed in the past by jumping the gun so they were going to be place to go for the most reliable information for this election.

I almost laughed out loud but my lips are chapped.

I kinda liked the "wall-o-video" on CNN myself.

Ed Bradley called it for Bush at 12:30. Rather kept repeating CBS would not jump the gun.

It was pathetic to watch him going, "But if Kerry wins this, and if Kerry wins that he can win WITHOUT Ohio!" Then one of those states would turn red and he would start all over again, "Wait! It is still possible for Kerry to win if he wins this and this!"

It was fabulous entertainment! Three old codgers mumbling and harumphing! Ed Bradley looked like Skeletor. And the Ratherisms were comming fast and furious! Anybody gotta list?
