New England Cable News Covention Commentator a REPUBLICAN!
I called the News Desk-they are attempting to be "balanced", the woman who answered the phone told me. :eyes:

Please call them at (617) 630-5025 and let them know how you feel about having Avi Nelson, Repuke, as a commentator on for hours on end.

The Executive producer's name is Tom Melville and his email is tmelville@necn.com. Please call or email!

1. When I think of New England Cable News
I think of the summer of 2001 while on vacation in Maine and the ENDLESS 24/7 coverage of the Dirk Greineder case juxtaposed with Andrea Yates. *shudder*

Sorry, "attempting" to be balanced and "being" balanced are two entirely different things.

6. well, that's what I was wondering
somebody should have asked the person who answered the phone if a Democrat would be covering the RNC ... to be "balanced" and all

7. Now Robert Reich is on with a Repuke
they can have a Repuke alone but a Dem always has to have a Repuke to offer a counterpoint. :eyes:

9. Switch to DISH.. it's cheaper..and you get Democracy Now..
Dems should "talk" with their wallets.. Dump Cable...and tell them WHY..

I dumped Adelphia, and when I took my cable stuff back, I asked to speak to the manager.. I told her that their service was OK, but I could not bear to give Rupert Murdoch ONE PENNY of my hard earned money..
