5. Damn right. I started with MSNBC but couldn't bear to listen to Brokaw & Mitchell.
C-Span is the best; just ask Abe...

7. Unfortunately it's not in HD, so I won't watch it.
For this event I want to see everything like I'm there. Switching between standard definition and HD shows a pretty stark difference.

8. Every band gets a caption on C-Span
They're the ones who really count, not the bloviators on the other channels

9. That's all I watched!
No group of self-important morons sitting in front of laptops stating the obvious, talking over speeches, citing useless stats that say nothing, and instilling their uninformed opinions that no one cares about.
