1. Well, I watched CNN yesterday and Obama got a lot more time.
I think the networks just really aren't that careful about it one way or another.

Plus, one quality minute of Obama is worth like an hour of McCain.

2. *lol* You sure got that right! I'd still like to see a better balance...the
convention coverage was pathetic.
Meg Whitman and Carly Fiorina got full coverage of their speeches, while John Kerry and Brian Schwietzer got NO coverage, all the while the M$M talking heads were moaning about what the Democrats SHOULD have been saying, and they were SAYING IT but the heads were yapping right over it!
pissed me off.

3. Well, the thing is Schuster said they would give each one the same amount of time
So I timed it with my stopwatch. Good thing he doesn't time the 200 meter
for the Olympics
