They show Lieberman's godawful concession speech and promise they'll go to Lamont when he give his speech. So there's Lamont on CSPAN - and what's on CNN - stock footage of fucking asshole Lieberman and dipshit Candy Crowley reporting live from Lieberman's camp. NO LAMONT. :mad:

It's the first time I've seen it, and I can't get Candy kneeling and snuffling for her special candy-corn out of my mind. You might be on to the newest diet craze. Still. Ewww. Unclench. Chill. Have some dip. :)

10. What's up with that anyway?
I thought MSNBC would at least do the "Breaking News" thing. Their new evening program is bullshit.

30. He's symbolic of much more than himself.
It's what he represents and what his win will do across this country - I expect a tidal wave and I hope it scares the shit out of the status quo corporate bastards in charge right now. I'm so happy too! :hi:

11. I read earlier on DU that

13. She predicted he'd win earlier.
She had her head so far up Bushco's ass during the 2004 Republican Convention it was sickening. I'm sorry, but she's a vile pig (no offense to pigs intended).

15. What's CNN's problem? Big $$$ runs CNN.
We all know which side the corporate news outlets' answers to, and it's the corporatists.

17. I thought they'd at least show a few seconds though.
There was nothing - no reporter on the scene, nothing.

26. If you were expecting fairness from a corporate news outlet, you were....
expecting far too much, I'm afraid.

21. MSM needs to playdown Lamont victory to avoid the story from remaining too
long in the spotlight -- how many times will they say Lieberman lost because he was Bush's lapdog - and that KISS!!! that was excellant footage to be replayed again & again...

34. Yes, Fox did. However, I think they knew what the outcome would be,
and that gave them a chance to say that this shows the Dem party has gone off track. Hannity and O'Reilly are leading the charge.

24. They are losing their grip on the electorate. They didn't
control or have enough input to affect the outcome.

29. I watched CNN for about 5 seconds
earlier this evening. I couldn't take the smarmy puke who was defending Lieberman. CNN has become completely unwatchable as nearly as I can tell.
