WTG FNC! I love Fox...but I have to say that MSNBC has had the better coverage. Sorry...it's true. FNC doesn't have the Bill Gates billions to work with tho, so they're good, but limited.

I agree that MSNBC has seemed to try hard, at least part of the time, to appear that they are not rooting for us to lose nor gloating over every setback or death like ABC, etc. does.

Passing through ABC early on I noted Jennings said "the violence" in Baghdad, not "the bombing" in Baghdad and was appalled.

Yes, we have watched FOX the most, but made more forays to MSNBC more than to CNN.

They'll get there. For their first 5-10 years, CNN was as much of a dump to work in as FNC is now. They had the flies and the lack of resources. It's just a matter of time.

I WOULD, however, like to know just what technology NBC got their hands on for their embedded feeds, particularly for David Bloom. Last night they had a several-minute-long live report from him riding atop a tank moving at top speed that was as crystal clear as if he were still in Secaucus. How are they pulling that off? Especially when Fox's and CNN's guys are sending back images that look like they're using cameras with "Logitech" stamped on the side?
