ABC Debate Tomorrow -- Not Live on West Coast
Correct me if I'm wrong, but I've just checked my local listings
and on the West Coast, we will have to wait 3 hours to see the
ABC Democratic Presidential Debate tomorrow night.

Considering ABC doesn't have a cable news partner (like MSNBC
or Fixed Noize) that MIGHT carry it live, I'm really irritated
that they're opting to show their usual afternoon fare (local
news, Oprah) instead of running the debate live at 8 ET / 5 PT.

1. Well call the local station... find out
if they're getting much demand to see it live.

You never know... :shrug:

4. I'll try doing that -- I was really hoping they'd just put it on at 5
and follow it with local news (flip the programing around).

Guess it's time for me to get the 'net at home because maybe
they'll be airing it online live ...

7. Yeah... that'd be convenient!
I don't have the net at home either. Big pain in the butt that is. :P

Good luck! :hi:

3. Live web stream?
We live in the Internet age. You don't need to wait on the tape delay for this. The ABC site will probably have live video.

6. Oh, my "old school" is showing -- no 'net at home (!!!)
Only at work (and I have a doctor's appointment tomorrow afternoon
that will land me at home just around 5PM).

Ah, that darned digital divide ... Internet is no longer a luxury,
but a necessity.

8. You can also see if there are any ABC radio affiliates that'll be airing live audio.
That's always a possibility, too.
