Bad sound??? What is their problem?
Have you noticed how many time CNN and othe news folks seem to have trouble with sound when the Dems are speaking?

- Bad sound on CNN during the balloon drop at the convention
- Bad sound on MSNBC when they gave Edwards a chance to comment on the first debate? (check the online video)
- Bad sound for the Kerry press conference on Tuesday

I am sure theri are others....anyone tracking this?

1. Even C-Span - trouble with phone lines...no one at the other end...click
Nove having a voice is like not having a vote. Who rules? It's obvious.

2. I have noticed.
They also broke away from a Kerry speech to let us know that Mt. St. Helens was STILL letting off steam.

3. OK, the balloon drop
...is not a VALID complaint. The producer was screaming "What the FUCK is the matter with you, you FUCKING ASSHOLE...I need more FUCKING BALLOONS!!! FUCK, FUCK!!!"

...or words to that effect!!! Apparently, the balloons had jammed and were not being released in a great swoosh, like they were supposed to....

HOWEVER, to be honest with you, and fair to the sense of your comment, I notice that as well. It seems to me that any time I want to watch anything, they do a test of the emergency broadcast system. Geez, makes me feel safe (beeeeep, beeeeep, beeeep....this is a test....it it only a test....if this were an actual emergency, your ass would be dead and you would not be hearing this announcement!).

It's the lamestream media for ya.

4. Cspam muted all the applause at Kennedy's speech
last week at Geo. Washingtom U.
Has anyone else how, when they talk about the polls, they SAY one # but put another # on the screen? The # they speak is ALWAYS in *'s favor.

5. At least CNN showed it
MSNBC had entertainment news, and Faux had some worthless discussion crap on.

6. Yeah
CNN's sound went out on Kerry, almost as if on cue. It's becoming far too obvious and predictable for it to be "coincidence."

Earlier, CNN had a totally pointless story about how most people in Great Britain didn't know John Edwards' name. So the hell what? It would be like the BBC coming over here and asking the man on the street who the Labour Party leader from Manchester is. And, I imagine more people in the UK know who Edwards is than what CNN showed...you know they edited the film only for the most clueless responses. Regardless...the biggest waste of about three minutes I've seen...well, since yesterday. They may not know him today, but I'm sure they will very soon.

Does it help to e-mail them, or does that assume they actually give a rat's ass about what I think?
