Rudy Giuliani is everywhere, and the network differences - Tilted Forum Project Discussion Community

Is it just me, or is Rudy Giuliani on every channel every 10 minutes? I really don't mind though. He may be biased, but he's still a good guy.

I went to sleep watching him on one channel and woke up watching him on another. Another interesting issue is how ever station is reporting different electoral counts.

CNN: 254 - 252
ABC: 254 - 242
FOX: 269 - 242
NBC: 269 - 238

I got a really really big kick out of the 254 v 252 count on CNN, but liberals probably get a kick out of NBC. Either way Ohio is the main difference, but that's another thread or 5.

Does everyone agree that those 4 networks, in order of how they are calling the election at this point in time (10:24a eastern), are also displaying how liberal or conservative they are?

I don't agree that the vote totals indicates a viewpoint, but you get a great idea of who thinks what if you switched b/t cbs and fox last night. Rather continues to call everything that Bush wins as an "as it is seen right now" and "if this holds up", while the Fox people were seriously pissed about the wrong exit polling data that showed Kerry sweeping all of the swing states.
