What do you watch on TV in the AM?

[Bonn1997]

Even though I didn't like the show's conservative bend, I'd been watching Morning Joe. But this morning when Mika fully, and I mean entirely, agreed with Joe about the stimulus package being all pork, I decided that was the last time I'd watch the show. It's just a bunch of conservatives chatting. So I put CNN on, which was boring like usual but at least it wasn't purely conservative. What do you watch?

1. I don't watch TV in the morning. I don't like to ruin my day before it even begins.

[Tangerine LaBamba]

7. Dare I say

"Ditto"?

The quiet of the morning is far too sweet to be sullied by the honking of a TV show of any kind.

[Veritas_et_Aequitas]

13. Indeed, although I'm more of a paper man.

That ruins my morning in a whole different way.

[Delphinus]

19. I'm with you!

It's hard enough when I don't wake up in time to turn off the radio.

[gblady]

23. me either....

the thought of waking up to MSM is nauseating.

[TroglodyteScholar]

27. Amen... n/t

[NYCGirl]

2. The Rachel Maddow Show tivoed from the night before. NT

[Dappleganger]

18. Same here, then switch over to CNN.

[Uzybone]

3. ESPN and CNN

I don't venture near MSNBC until Tweety comes on.

[floridablue]

4. I used to watch Imus

Can't stand it now. Robin Meade is ok on CNN as long as you don't watch her every day. Can liisten to Imus on WABCradio. Or go local

[katmondoo]

5. Nothing in the morning

It has been many years since I watched any morning shows. At one time they were informative, not anymore.

[charlie and algernon]

6. The West Wing or ESPN

Bravo plays The West Wing from 8-10 every morning, so I either watch the 8am episode or highlights from ESPN

[EFerrari]

8. I watch Washington Journal even though in general it's slanted

because they do a good job of picking out the day's hot stories.

And, also Amy Goodman on DemocracyNow! which can also be streamed from her site.

I wouldn't touch CNN or MSNBC with a ten foot kitten. They're awful. The only time I watch them is to see how they're approaching a story so I can write about how awful they are. :)

[annabanana]

9. I flip.. and flip and flip..

If something starts to push my BP up, I flip... CSpan 1,2,3 Today, CNN, MSNBC .

(Of course I'm in and out of the room all the time.. so I miss stuff)

[endarkenment]

10. I don't.

Although other people in my house do, and I sort of pass by it and catch a whiff of the shit stink coming out of it, and just move on by.

[azmouse]

11. A few minutes of Good Morning America.

That's all I can stand.

[roguevalley]

12. Dog Whisperer on National Geo, the history stuff on History and

History International and the news on MSNBC. :)

[high density]

14. The Daily Show or Colbert Report from the night before

No better way to start the day, IMO.

[malaise]

15. I watch 15 minutes of Joe Scum

then Washington Journal on CSpan. The TV either stays on CSpan or switches to GEM$NBC.

[NoPasaran]

16. Usually, nothing. On occasion, The Weather Channel

[ThomWV]

17. 7:00am - Washington Journal on C-Span until 10:00 daily.

[Tommy_Carcetti]

20. CNN and C-Span, sometimes ESPN, until my little girl wakes up.

Then it's the $^@$#%@%$ Mickey Mouse Clubhouse on the Disney Channel.

[librechik]

21. Colbert and Daily Show repeats--works on Sunday, too!

mo more Sunday doomsday!

[Subdivisions]

22. I watch Sunrise Earth on HD Theater and whatever I can find

on History, Nat Geo, Science, Discovery. I no longer watch the "news" channels. Get all the news I can use right here on DU.

[RedEarth]

24. Animal Planet

[RJ Connors]

25. I don't. I turned the cable off due to finances

And there wasn't anything worth watching anyway.

[Harry Monroe]

26. Porno!!

No, seriously though, I read a newspaper. I've never been one for TV in the early AM until I've at least had 2 cups of coffee. Even then, most of what passes for "news" is shit.

[JuniperLea]

28. Local LA news

Ever since 9/11 I wake up worried that we've all gone to hell, so I'm compelled to check the news in the morning. Then the traffic report, because my commute, though only 21 miles, goes from the coast to downtown... and I take two freeways... crossing three other freeways... lots of room for problems there.

[MsTryska]

29. I'm a Washington Journal junkie too

now that I've gotten back on a morning schedule.

[vaberella]

30. Not any more but I did watch Morning Schmoe and Mika Mouse.

I've taken a break for them and have been in the look out for something else. I think I'll start dvring another show so I can watch that in my mornings.

[MADem]

31. I read the news online.

Every once in a blue moon I listen to Imus on the internet. I haven't done that lately, though. I may tune in tomorrow, just to see who he's griping about these days.

[Jazzgirl]

32. I try to find a movie to watch while I get ready.

If the weather is funky I check local news/weather. Otherwise, I just find a movie with no socially redeeming value. I am so sick of morning CNN, MSNBC, and lets not talk about faux since I don't even let them grace any of my TV's.

[blonndee]

33. I'm entirely with you. I have regularly watched Morning Joe

since it began, but Mika has been getting more and more disgusting, and I changed the channel to CNN this morning, too. She was REALLY bad today.

I guess I'll keep watching Morning Joe for a while and see how it goes. I can't stand much more of Mika, though. Of course Joe is a tool, but somehow I find Mika even more sickening. She has no spine whatsoever anymore, if she ever did.

[madrchsod]

34. animal planet and national geographic.....

got to have my fix of critter shows

[oldnslo]

35. Joe inhales, and I'm glad they yanked him off evening show.
