Anyone who watched the Fox News coverage missed most of the convention. They were more about listening to themselves. CSPAN was the place to be. Don’t give them the satisfaction of the ratings tonight.

We use CSPAN too...much better than listening to commentators.

However, you have to remember to turn it off before they start taking calls at the end of the program. So many “fake” Republicans and Independents call in and it’s almost laughable to hear their contrived impressions of the night.

The theme of the callers last night seemed to be that the night was boring and lacked energy :)

Yep. Brother and I switched over late, but missed the speeches by the families of the persons killed by the illegal alien and Fast & Furious. CNN started off better, but then they were blabbing over all the speeches too.

CPAN was great but it timed out on me just before Melania spoke. NO cable tv here.

I agree. I watched on C-Span and it was so nice just hearing the speakers without any pompous asses bloviating about NOTHING with speakers on stage.

We don’t have cable any more so watched the entire convention live on our computer from a Phoenix TV station. It was great - good audio and no commercials.

Agree absolutely. Tonight I will be watching rightside.broadcasting for a live stream of every word of the convention.

Last night was shameful by the media. After months and months of hype about 23/7 coverage by FOX and CNN, etc. None of them fully presented the most important convention speeches of generations.

Not only that, the ego stuffed talking heads only wanted to hear the sounds of their own words and critiques instead of the speakers. Never been so disgusted with political coverage.

Yes, the CSPAN coverage was refreshingly pure.
