Shame on you, MSNBC.

[Barack_America]

That station has been far the worst at showing the films and speakers of the DNC.

They are obsessed with their own punditry and, quite frankly, it's getting old.


Disclaimer: FoxNews doesn't exist in my world, so I have no idea what their coverage has been.

1. CSPAN!!!!

CSPAN

[Barack_America]

18. I just flipped over to see if MSNBC was covering Kerry, the film, etc.

Nope.

Trust me, I'm all over CSPAN, but I'm saddened that MSNBC's coverage has been so much worse than CNN's.

2. Did they just show the film about our armed forces? nt

[AbbeyRoad]

6. No they didn't.

[Bigleaf]

7. No, they did not.

[Barack_America]

23. No. And that is what primarily set me off. Not showing that was an insult to veterans.

And I won't stand for that shit.

[AbbeyRoad]

3. I agree

I was surprised that even CNN was showing part of Kerry's speech and the Spielberg video and MSNBC had none of it.

4. PBS--great HD, less filling...

[Bigleaf]

5. Fucking dusgusting. Want to be the GOP Convention coverage is different?

[AlCzervik]

8. Aye, a pox on their houses.

[RandomKoolzip]

9. I'm lucky to have CSPAN.

[Botany]

10. Egg zack lee

Where was Kerry, Duckworth, the Vet's Film, & Gov Switzer

C-SPAN

[Jeff In Milwaukee]

11. In their defense...

Punditry is the product that they sell.

If you want the unvarnished coverage of the speakers. C-Span is the place to be.

[Barack_America]

20. CSPAN is my channel, but I've noticed that CNN has been MUCH better than MSNBC...

Fox, well, like I said, I have no clue.

[City Lights]

12. ...

C-SPAN

[Doctor_J]

13. Why do you keep watching and complaining to DU?

Why would they change since morans keep tuning in?

[Barack_America]

15. I'm watching CSPAN, but I occasionally flip through the channels to see what they're covering.

MSNBC didn't even cover John Kerry! C'mon!

[Atman]

22. Do you understand that "most people" are watching this crap? That's the point..

Know what the enemy is doing.

Your friends at work, your family this Labor Day weekend, people you pass on the street...if they're paying the slightest bit of attention, this is what they're seeing. Being ignorant of it doesn't help any of us. Being aware make you educated, and being educated allows you to effectively rebut the idiots who parrot what they hear some used-car salesman cum pundit spewing on the "news" stations owned by defense contractors and self-interested media conglomerates.

Tuning out only helps you be that much less aware of what is going on in the world. The lies told by the media still exist in a certain reality all their own, because it's all many Americans ever hear.

14. Yup. CNN has been guilty of that on occasion too.

They love to hear themselves talk so much they literally don't show the show.

[Botany]

16. I hate it when somebody has to tell me what I just heard.

and that includes Keith & Rachel too.

[question everything]

17. I am satisfied with CNN - at least in the evenings

MSNBC has been trying to be a news channel but is caught in the partisanship of all of them including, yes, Olbermann. In that sense, they are just like Fox.

[Barack_America]

19. I'm watching CSPAN, but I flip through...

And yes, CNN seems to be showing MUCH more of the actual convention.

[lonestarnot]

21. CSpan is the answer to that problem!

[Barack_America]

24. I am watching CSPAN, but most people aren't. And they too deserve better coverage. nt

[Captain Hilts]

25. They're a shitty network. No surprise. nt

[pdxmom]

26. Pat Buchanan just made a bigger ass of himself than usual, if that's

possible. He showed that he's not paying any attention and just spewing out his ass with uninformed opinion. He said that none of the speakers have given any "red meat". Obviously, he's only watched those speeches that MSNBC has chosen to show, and he had heard none of Kucinish, Schweitzer, Kerry or any of the others.

[Awsi Dooger]

27. I can't blame them

I click away during every film. I don't want packaged, I want entertainment

[Raine]

28. They never show the films

I remember from years passed they didn't show them. :-(

[Barack_America]

29. CNN did. nt

[MaryEllen9399]

30. has that loser has-been Ron Silver been on yet? nt

[Heather MC]

31. I fired their asses tonight GO C-SPAN I haven't Missed a thing!!!!

[ray of light]

32. stream...dnc convention or cspan. forget the corporate media.
