If you're not switching to CNN or the Cooking Channel today because

[maxrandb]

NBChuck Todd is giving Donnie Asspickle a forum tonight, do it because of Morning Joe Cosplaying "the sky is falling" this morning.

1. Actually it is an OP Ed from the NY Times which Morning Joe is talking about. The biggest flaw

with that OP Ed is it falsely trying to relate 2016 to 2020, and making certain assumptions which I believe are not valid

That being said, no one is taking anything for granted, which is why we are seeing record numbers in early voting

2. I'm comfort-watching old Nigella Lawson cooking shows.

She's the only person I like to watch eat.

[Blue_playwright]

14. I'm binging Bewitched! Lol

[calimary]

18. "M*A*S*H" binge over here.

And the Biden town hall tonight. Screw the trump one. Not interested. Not even in reruns.

[Sherman A1]

3. Turn it all off

And do something else.

[Trumpocalypse]

16. FYI

[Ace Rothstein]

20. Collectively, DU has a severe cable news addiction.

[Sherman A1]

21. Yes, it does and has had for a very, very long time

which I find rather sad in many ways. I remember a world before cable noise arrived on the scene and amazingly it was possible to be informed without a bunch of talking heads screaming their opinions and multitudes of possible scenarios at me to fill airtime between commercial breaks.

I find my life is much better without their bloviating.

[samnsara]

4. i will watch whatever channel joe is on

[The Genealogist]

5. Keys to happiness

1) Turn off the infotainment. It is there to stir up a horse race, because it makes the rich people who run the various outlets fat stacks of cash.

2) Vote in November like your life depends on it, because it DOES. Take a friend, wear a mask and stay six feet or more from other people.

11. Sounds like a very good plan

Just a short 10 days from now, I’m going to be partaking in NYS early voting in person.

Can’t wait!!!

[Sherman A1]

22. +1000

[sop]

6. They're just trying to get more viewers to watch their election night coverage.

[aeromanKC]

7. ABC today at my house

Fuck NBC and same time town hall. I've got no problem with Trump Town Hall, except same time!!?? Fuck that!! Absolute disservice to the people!! But then again, that is mode of operandi for Trump.

[Karma13612]

10. If you have the technology,

You could always record MF45’s and then watch another time, for a good laugh.

[Rice4VP]

27. Listening to him makes my head hurt and

I literally feel my BP and stress levels going up because no one checks him. It was a thing of beauty when Biden finally told him to shut up. I ended up muting him after about 20 minutes. I couldn’t take it anymore. I’ll listen to the lowlights after

[Karma13612]

28. I like this idea much better

I agree that it is wrong to make the public choose between the two events. But, I never planned on watching Trump unless he was going to directly debate Biden anyway.

Since they are two separate events, then I know which I will be watching.

[handmade34]

8. making cookies

working on a commission project (wood nymph/fairy/witch doll... that is a challenge ) and staying away from news today

[Karma13612]

9. Brilliant!

I am seeing a Medicare advisor to select my MCR Advantage plan for 2021.
I have been with WellCare for nearly 2 years and I’m not impressed.

[Squinch]

12. Show us a picture of the doll when it's done!!! Sounds fabulous!

[handmade34]

30. I will

it is for a very young girl so it is not very sophisticated but I am having fun with it!!!

[Squinch]

31. That's the best kind!

[Earthshine2]

13. For Trump, it's all about the ratings! So, just tune into ABC tonight for that purpose.

I don't normally have the patience for the town halls, but for tonight, this has been made into a competition thanks to Trump, NBC, and Chuck Todd.

So, let's win!

[pwb]

15. I will watch Joe. Trump highlights will do.

All the cable news talkers disappoint close to the elections with the staged horse race.

[speaknow]

17. Morning Joe

Must've got the memor from the
top, push DJT make it a close one
to stir interest cause I need another
tax break. Talk about unmasking,
well looky, look what we see.

[blueinredohio]

19. I'll watch Investigation Discovery or Forensic Files.

[Rice4VP]

25. I love Forensic Files.

[bucolic_frolic]

23. Networks are making sure to take care of their *political* advertisers

[Rice4VP]

24. Glad that I didn't drag myself out of bed to watch them today

maybe it’s reverse psychology to GOTV

[eShirl]

26. doing a Great Courses marathon instead!

Just finished up "Islamic Golden Age," now I'm a few lessons into "History of Spain."
(Can't wait till I get up to Al Andalus)

[BannonsLiver]

29. I've been watching MSNBC

I find daytime MSNBC is Fox Lite, especially with Andrea Mitchell’s 4 hour show (or at least that’s what it feels like, though Craig Melvin is also terrible) at least until Wallace’s show starts.

As others have said they have clearly gotten the memo from the c suite types that the horse race narrative must be flogged to maximize revenue in final few weeks.
