Get Out Your Pencils (or word processors)... WRITE TO THEM
This infuriated me.

U.S. networks under pressure

<snip last 2 paragraphs>---
“We're not happy that the exit polls, even in the first wave, were wrong,” Mr. Shapiro said. “We're all reviewing it, it should have been better. I think there were mistakes, some of which we're trying to figure out, and some of which we can't.”

All three also said their networks had set up investigative units to review any claims of voter fraud or problems with electronic voting technology this year, but that nothing significant had appeared anywhere to affect the election's outcome.

The whole article is about how the networks discussed competing in this new day and age, but the end is where is really made me mad.

We all need to write to these guys and tell them what we think!
