It is not easy to find news about Obama's speech |
|
Sure, there are the little squawks from pissant Republicans whining, but there was no live coverage (on the web at least) on CNN, MSNBC or any other news orgs. In fact, to get the entire speech, you have to go to the White House website. Everywhere else its as if it never happened.

6. There was live coverage and lots of follow up on MSNBC and CNN - I'm guessing |
|
C-Span, too. I THINK the OP means their websites?
And I don't think anybody except those of us who are interested and follow this stuff, would have watched anyway. :shrug:
I can't think of one person in "my circle" who would have tuned in, sadly.

2. It was covered live on MSNBC -- I'm guessing it was on CNN and C-Span, too. |
|
Or are you saying it wasn't on their websites? If so, that's pretty disappointing.

4. It was a pretty anti-corporation speech so corporate media avoid broadcasting |
|
or televising it, like the plague.
That means, it was a GOOD speech, and it's making them (the elite and corporations in this country) very, very nervous.
Instead, see an influx of Republicans and their pre-gurgitated talking points to hit the air with gusto.

8. Hmmm - when the speech was going on I couldn't find any links |
|
Perhaps I wasn't looking in the right places...
