Fox news until it was obvious Bush was going to win and then I had to watch the disappointment creep in to the face of the others
I did not watch TV at all, just surfed at FR and the board of elections website for my county. I could get up to the minute results much faster on-line than by watching TV.
None. I listened to Hugh Hewitt and watched the results on the internet.
No cable: Mostly watched the local Fox affiliate with Shepard Smith. I think Fox had him for the feed to local affiliates.
I put a movie in the DVD until midnight. Then after checking in with FR, I watched the Banny Dather CBS meltdown for 3 1/2 hours.
Rather was grasping for straws all night and looked like someone shot his dog! :-)
It was Great!!!!
Watched FOX mostly, listened to Hugh Hewitt on the radio.

I flipped channels all night. Some thoughts:
Fox News Channel's coverage was awful. They constantly showed state graphics with no data. Thanks a lot. The female democrat talking head that over-enunciates every word was very grating.
Dan Rather (biased as he is) used about a million catch phrases ("the margin is about as thin as turnip soup") as was kinda entertaining.
I thought the best coverage was a combination of MSNBC and NBC. Chris Matthews is biased, but did a pretty fair job last night. Anytime he and Joe Scarborough have a discussion it is entertaining.
Although, I could be completely wrong...
Fox News & Internet--FR 85% of internet time. Otherwise, sifted thru 2000 county returns in FL vs the incoming 2004 county results then shifted to do the same w/ OH.
Free Republic for 8 hours then 2 hours sleep and now back again.
Listened to Mark Levin on WABC until 8:00 Pm EST, then a little bit of MSNBC, then switched to Fox for good...
I watched HGTV until 11:30 and then turned on Fox until 3:00. By prearrangement with my husband, who was very anxious about this election, I did not check Free Republic until 10:30. By then things were looking hopeful. I had to keep the afternoon scare from him. Fortunately, we had other things keeping us away from the "bad" news during the afternoon.
I stayed on Free Republic only (no TV) until 1:30am when I finally turned on FNC (very reluctantly)
Fox on TV
Drudge on the internet
None. I slept.
I read 10,100 post on FR. I did not watch any TV. It was way cool.
FR, Fox and Coast to Coast on the radio
Fox News (cable channel)
local Fox affiliate (had Shep Smith on)
some ABC, tiny smattering of NBC, one barf moment of CBS where I watched Dan Blather do his best to come up with some kind of scenario where Kerry could win without Ohio
None... I bounced between FR, NRO, RCP. I listened to Hugh Hewitt online. He was much more reassuring and sane than the networks. He was exactly all I could handle. Hugh deserves some credit & recognition for keeping his cool while others (KLo?!?!) lost it.
Ugh! Couldn't stand even LOOKING at the T.V. yesterday!! F.R. all the way, baby!
