Slight morning rant

I thought the coverage by ABC was abysmal.  They skipped most of it then for some reason brought in Republican heads to talk trash about the presenters.  For two freakin' hours just play the damn thing. 


I moved over to PBS after a while and it was a little better.


Why the hell do I need talking heads to tell me about what I just saw as if I was unable to decipher English myself?


My guess is that people have just gotten used to television images yelling at each other that they need it to feel like something significant is occurring.


The one time I'd like to have CSPAN cover something they don't.

It turns out that the Demo convention is live streamed (or supposed to be) on Roku so I'll be able to avoid all heads who are talking. And commercials for Cialis.

This is where I watched it last night. Didn't see any commentary there. It is a live stream though.

Yeah, thank you. I found that and it streams directly to my Roku.
