I didn't manage to see all of it, so I am not certain. Anyone?

1. Yes
Ohio recount, lawsuit w/Kerry involement. He covered it briefly, metioned that the AFD lawsuit hasn't been filed yet and that the Glibs/Kerry won the lawsuit to force Delaware county to comply.

4. our election FRAUD stories
are now down to a 1 minute quick snippet at the end of the main story about the Ukraine election fraud - not much at all really, but better than the nothing we get from the other network shows.

Well, Arnebeck is pretty busy but committed to keeping the press and public informed--maybe he'll be on next week.

edit to add--it's been an emotional week, they need a breather.

11. Arnebeck was supposed to file Thursday then moved it today, at least
according to the Washintong Journal show I saw with him on C-Span.. Wonder why he delayed the filing again? I hope it's not bad news, but that they are tightening up the case. :shrug: ????

13. He sounded so confident, I wouldn't worry.
He spoke of one delay that was due to more hard evidence.

16. I wouldn't take it as any kind of trend.We've had a number of days w/short
coverage on Countdown (especially if you consider the week that KO was on vacation), so I think its more about what has happened that day and who he can get on the program that day. I hope he gets Arnebeck on there because he's a pretty good representative.

9. Once again, let's thank the man
kOlbermann@msnbc.com

My email tonight:

Subject: Thank you for your continued coverage

Dear Mr. Olbermann:

Thank you for staying focused on the tainted election. I realize your show cannot, at this juncture, devote as much time to the issue as some of us would hope for. However, it's good to know that someone like you cares enough to keep the public aware of developments.

Next week should be a doozie.

Regards,
(Straight Shooter)

17. I'm blown away by the fact that his viewership has jumped
128% since he started addressing the voter fraud issue. Wonder if that doesn't make the network boys sit up and take notice. It's always about ratings. $$$
