Guess what No Body watched us last night at all "WOW"
Edited on Tue Jul-27-04 10:46 AM by WinterStorm
I just heard the dork with the British accent say that nobody watched the Democratic Convention last night.

Was I the only person watching TV along with a few other DU'ers because I just can't believe their f*cking lies.

Excuse the swearing but I am as mad as hell.

(Talking points for the rethugs and the corporate owned media....Pretend that no one watched the convention at all)

:grr:

2. How can anyone watch it when it's barely being shown on TV
seriously?

I remember many many conventions ago when the Conventions would get 2-3 hours of primetime a night.

Thanks goodness for C-SPan

3. CNN was quick to point out that the WB beat everyone in the ratings last
night.

Pretty sad. No wonder smirky is tied in the polls. People don't pay attention to what their government is doing in their name. Pretty friggin' sad.

4. What's the WB?
BTW, the ratings will increase as the convention goes on. I think most people are interested in what Kerry has to say, and Edwards, too.

8. I think it is the Warner Brother's network, I am not sure.
Since it is obviously kind of lame, I took it as a smack in the face. A lame station out rated the democratic convention.

I think you are right. Wed. and Thurs. will be big nights.

10. Warner Channel
It's a sappy teen obsessed and teen targeted mind candy addiction for our "active minded American youth." It was started by Warner Bros. and is found only on cable to try and prop up the parent companies cable holdings.

It has these shows:

7th Heaven
Blue Collar TV
Charmed
Everwood
Gilmore Girls
Grounded for Life
One Tree Hill
Reba
Smallville
Steve Harvey's Big Time
Studio 7
Summerland
What I Like...

5. CNN Con News Network
It was the Dork on CNN that said that no one watched last night and it made no impact at all on anyone LOL.

I broke down crying during Bill Clinton's speech.

Eveyone at work is talking about it....do they count?

What a load of SHIT.

CNN Con News Network!

:grr:

7. well, when it's only on for an hour
and that's from 10-11, when many people like my parents have long toddled off to bed.

I spent 7 hours straight watching CSPAN. God love 'em.

11. They can't spin it any other way
"No one watched it"

I sat and watched it for hours and I enjoyed every minute of it.

The re-thugs are green with envy and they are jealous.

17. too funny
Edited on Tue Jul-27-04 11:38 AM by Winter1979
I was born earlier than expected because my mom had a minor car accident (she really just slid on the ice) about a week after the storm and went into labor.

13. As far as I know,
all of my family, friends and loved ones had their television sets tuned to C-Span watching the convention--including my dear husband!
:P
And i think the networks know people were watching the convention last night... that is why they have to counter it with "no one was watching" or with the streamer that Kerry is losing ground to Bush.

We Americans are engaged in a battle for democracy here at home, for the right to freedom of speech, freedom of religion,and all of the democratic principles that lend luster and shine to all of the American traits that we cherish. Our first battle is that of booting the bushes and their shadowy cabinet out of the WH. It is a battle that we are waging not only to boot Bush out of the WH on November 2nd, but also against the drowning of our voices by a bunch of mediawhores who don't give a hoot about our democratic principles as long as their tin cans are filled with silver coins.
:P

19. I spoke to several people at work & they all watched our Convention
They said that everyone that they knew watched it also.

I guess the RW'ers didn't watch it and we don't count :cry: LOL.

Screw the Corporate Press they are jealous of us and we know it.

:kick:
