CSPAN has had the best coverage. No commentary, no meaningless news scrolling along the bottom and no commercial breaks.

And no talking heads yammering over the coverage. Their coverage of people going through the Rotunda to pay their last respects to President Reagan has been outstanding--without an excited voice saying, "There's Thatcher! There's Gorbachev!" On days such as these, I just want them to shut up.

As far as cable news goes, Fox has been the worst, CNN next, and MSNBC--at least Lester Holt--has had the good grace to be quiet for long periods of time.
