They have a channel that just shows the speakers only. I think it's almost like CSpan. I love it!

The other channels...ALL the other channels are not reporting the convention, they are creating the news of the convention using scenes they want us to see not the actual mass unity that is happening.

There is always objective discussion to be found but it's very rare at M$Greedia.
M$Greedia projects the interests of i=their owners. That and profit are the primary reasons for their existence today.
