A Complete Waste of Space

I'll add RT to the mix - Russian Television for those who haven't seen it - on cable outside the US, you can identify it by the little green box logo on the corner of the screen. As bad as an old school Soviet propaganda media outlet, using perfect English-speaking anchors and guests - some guests you would recognize from American media. But, you get a perspective on what the issues of the moment are for the Russian leadership, as much as it is almost totally bent to their world-view / for propaganda purposes.

Not unlike MSNBC in it's character and quality of output..

Agreed on the BBC, Rugg

Interesting CUDA...not surprising though...much commonality between them.

actually, BBC is one of my mainstays

How does yer "mainstay" stack up with the other networks?
With a "B" and "C" in their network name?

This of course...includes, CBS,NBC and ABC, not to mention?
The MS derivatives.

and these were the same folks concerned with showing ID? Sheesh! These clowns were out and out throwing registration forms away for Democrats!

Like Kennedy rigging the 1960 election?
Nixon won, but the Kennedys and the mob
made dam sure that the dead voted.

Callmesick you are, as usual, a cheap pathetic liar.

You're pathetic in too many ways to count.

Nothing more pathetic than you using multiple user names so that someone agrees with you.

The good news is HH?
This ain't the 60's.

Social media weighs in on 2012 presidential debate

Those were the judgments rendered across Twitter and Facebook Wednesday during the first debate of the 2012 presidential contest. While millions turned on their televisions to watch the 90-minute showdown, a smaller but highly engaged subset took to social networks to discuss and score the debate as it unspooled in real time.

"People still use old media to watch the debates, but they use social networks and other new media to have influence, voice opinions and be involved," said Scott Talan, an assistant professor of communication at American University who studies social media and politics. "Old media is not dead; it's growing. But now we have more people involved and engaged because of digital means."

Twitter announced shortly after Wednesday's debate that it had been the most tweeted event in U.S. political history, topping this year's Republican and Democratic National Conventions.
With 11.1 million comments, Wednesday's debate was the fourth most tweeted telecast of any kind, coming in just behind the most recent Grammy awards, MTV's Video Music Awards and the Super Bowl, according to William Powers, director of the Crowdwire, an election project of the social analytics firm Bluefin Labs. The project found 55 percent of the social comments about the debate were made by women, 45 percent by men.

Twitter scored Romney the debate's clear winner according to Peoplebrowsr, a web analytics firm. The group found 47,141 tweets mentioning Romney and "win or winner" compared to just 29,677 mentioning Obama and "win or winner."
Romney was also the top tweet in battleground states including Florida, Ohio, Nevada and Colorado, Peoplebrowsr found.

In Ohio, a key swing state where polls show Obama has emerged with a lead in recent weeks, the top two debate tweets were "Romney" with 15,115 and "Mitt" with 5,446. "Obama" placed third with 5,328.

Old Pudfark sez: " Truth is the Water of life. CallmeSlick, is the "ducks back"...yeah, the pun is intended. "

Speaking of Social Media?
Here's a couple of favorite tweets:

*This is a businessman, talking business, to a grad student. Obama should be taking notes and asking for an extension.

*Media coddled Captain Precious, and are now sad he got stomped. Sometimes beta males need to fight.

*Watching MSNBC discuss the debate is like watching the Titanic discuss the iceberg.

*I guess prepping with Joy Behar was a mistake.

*Obama is now like a Best Buy employee trying to sell you something he cannot fully explain.

*This should be called "Nightmares of My Father."

Like everything you say. You have no proof of this, and never will have.

It's only in you fucked up mind.

Here's a chore for you. Find one other person that agrees with you. What does this tell you?
