What election night coverage will you follow?
 

Which network will you be following the election night coverage on? It is always a bit of a pain for me over here because of having to go with the 'international' versions of most of the news channels. Fox doesn't do an international version and just broadcasts their normal US feed on digital tv here. If I watch more than ten minutes of that though I feel like bashing my head in. CNN international will probably mostly take their USA feed on the night. MSNBC used to be good but now that Tim has passed that may not be as good. The BBC is interesting to watch but they do it has outsiders looking in (which they are) and on the night I want American coverage. I will probably be flicking between them all.

Whose coverage will you be following?

I think i'll go for the flicking between them all option too!

Prob CNN, NBC... and a lil Fox just to see their unhappy faces :2 cents:

I will probably watch a bit to see how they try to cling onto hope for as long as possible.

Well I know CNN should have some live streaming on their website. Should pretty much be what's on TV. Not sure about the others.

Msnbc I think

I am curious as to how the BBC will cover it they are going big with it this time and the coverage of British elections on the BBC is generally very good but I want to feel American tonight (and I am but hard to at such distance sometimes) but Fox will make me want to self harm.

CNN / NBC / BBC everything I can get here

Probably chan surfing...but most likely CNN much of the time.

ill be watching cnn international.. mainly because my only other choice television wise is BBC

internet.

I guessed ;)

NBC or msnbc.

It doesn't really matter. I'll be watching at midnight eastern so hopefully this election will be over with by then.

I won't really.... I'm just gonna wait until Wednesday morning.....

All the above and if somehow Obama pulls it out I will be watching FOX to see how they spin it, just for laughs

I get CNN in HD, so probably that but with a picture-in-picture, usually on MSNBC. Tim may have passed, but Brokaw is there and even Luke Russert is covering some young voter related issues and polls and such.

I couldn't do that this is like the superbowl for me since politics is my sport. I do get it if you aren't into politics though.

I have TiVo loaded and a bunch of Netflix DVDs. Hopefully it will all be decided by the time I wake up tomorrow :)

Like I am not going to ask which DVDs?

Directv channel 352. Doing an election mix of 8 stations incl cnn, fox, msnbc, local cbs/nbc/abc. all good here

I hear she's into midget porn and she snacks on pickles.

haha, just kidding (or am I). No really I am (or am I)

:winkwink:

comedy central

same here.

Nothing wrong with pickles! With the amount of world cinema we both watch there is bound to be a midget sex scene somewhere.

hehe well Google news has this election coverage thing set up and it looks nice

I was surprised to find an map on the google news page documenting the election as it goes...

PBS newshour with jim lehrer, extended coverage

I will channel surf but CNBC for the most part. The financial focus is of interest to me.

LOL, TV shows - nothing exciting. And on TiVo some very thought provoking movies: Hellboy and Baby's Mama :thumbsup

I'm reading the book about Buffet and I can't read something serious and watch something serious at the same time!!

I thought we had an agreement about telling secrets :disgust

There is nothing wrong with Hellboy. After all, the same director that directed Pan's Labyrinth and numerous other excellent Spanish language films. Plus, hard not to like Ron Perlman. Just trying to figure out who he is going to play in the Hobbit since he is in every film Guillermo del Toro has directed and he has the Hobbit.

I will watch Fox for days and days if Obama wins.

I made up my own console @ http://www.informationtraffickers.com/2008Election/

Live feed. Map. Numerical Results. Election Room.

thief!!!!!!!

Interesting...Ted Koppel is commenting with the BBC on their coverage

That's what I've got on now. I'm about to retire to the couch with the laptop for the duration.

Whoa! CNN is showcasing Virtual View...

Basically, it's a 3D holographic image of a reporter being overlaid on the live feed!

Niiiice...

Yup, I just saw the virtual reporter woman. That was pretty cool.

frigin kick ass 35 hi def camera's to do that. Just image the ratios is we could pop in porn chicks into peoples living rooms lol
