    Democrats draw 26 million viewers on night one, beating Republicans

    Whoever watched the prime time slots saw some excellent speeches. 

    I know a LOT of people tuned in to see how Bernie's endorsement of Hillary would go. 
    (Certainly MUCH better than Cruz of Trump )

    And what, may I ask, were the ratings among Foxy viewers?  Oh, that's right, they didn't cover it did they?

    Yeah, they did.  I flipped between CNN, Fox News and MSNBC.  I actually think Fox News had the best presentation, not taking any of the commentary or opinions into consideration.  They let the speeches play out until they were finished before anyone commented.

    The article states they had $3.3 million viewers watching their coverage.  As I was switching channels between the major cable news outlets, I noticed they had coverage as well.

    I wouldn't really expect Dems to watch Fox news for coverage of their convention.  As would be predictable, they watched CNN and MSNBC

    Sorry to disappoint, but I was watching both conventions on C-span.  I checked in once in awhile with the Foxys and they were airing O'Reilly.  I'm sure it was fair and balanced on both conventions.

    I actually think Fox News had the best presentation  -  Man

    I apologize.  I didn't know that.  I rely alot on C-Span for objective reporting.

    C-SPAN treats you like an adult that can make up your OWN MIND !

    CSPAN by far is the best place to watch the conventions (and all politcal events actually) as it puts you in the room. You see the blemishes and all. No commentary. No fluff.

    Thanks for the heads up about C-Span guys.  I will check it out.  I'm not much of a political junkie normally, and I don't even think of C-Span when looking for political coverage on TV.  I will now though.  Thanks!

    I've watched both conventions, and I have to say that the Dems are really far ahead of the Trumpers in putting together and presenting a vision.

    We live in a time in which decent and otherwise sensible people are surrendering too easily to the hectoring of morons or extremists.

    Trump urges viewers to skip Clinton speech as Democrats rack up ratings wins

    Trump is a total piece of work !
