    where can a canadian with no cable watch? for sports I usually just use my parents credentials to access online cable, but I don't know if CNN allows that. 
    YouTube. All the major networks and cable channels should have a stream there.
    i wasn't sure if they'd be broadcasting live or not. thanks. 
    Actually, I just went to CNN website and they have a live free feed right there.

    RT or OANN. 
    what is RT? and why would you watch OANN? to see an epic meltdown?
    RT = Russian Times. It’s my trusted source for all things Mother Russia.

    It’s looking like I’ll be listening to NPR in my car this evening as I wait for a COVID test. Woke up feeling slightly crappy with a low grade fever. Waiting for the clinic to call back. No better way to cap off Election Day!

    Hoping for a negative on the test, jer.  Take care and feel better soon!

    this is weird. I've been watching Fox News and I find it palatable. Actually more so than CNN.

    The news side of Fox isn't bad. It's the rest of the network that blows.
    It's a hopeless situation...

    yeah I've heard that before. I just didn't expect it to be this non-partisan.

    I'll probably flip through the YouTube offerings off the SmartTV. I'm not a fan of cable/commercials.

    I cancelled my subscription to CNN (and all the other US news networks) soon after Trump gained office, as I just couldn't take it all anymore. If I still had TV access to them, it would be CNN.
    I've been skipping from ABC to CBS, and I feel like ABC has the most engaging thing going on so far.

    We have an 1100 square-foot condo. And I was counting on my wife to avoid this shit and watch something mindless. And she’s fucking tuned in. I hadn’t planned on drinking but it might be the only way I can just go to sleep for the next 12 hours.

    It's the station that was on when I turned on the TV.
    From what I've picked up they don't want trump to win
    The worst of times..they don't phase me,
    even if I look and act really crazy.

    Flip through channels, thought it was funny that Fox is giving Biden more states than any other news channel.
    Also surprised Trump has the popular vote right now, but that will probably change as west coast comes in.

    Fox has been strangley pessimistic.  They're one night from a one-party system and they're choosing now to pump the breaks.  Whatever; it's working for them.

    If only I had 750 here in NYC. That would be huge  ;)

    I think the Dems will hold the House.

    Perhaps it’s time for Pelosi to treat trump a little better and try to make some deals and say some nice things about him. Sometimes that’s all it takes.

    ABC has been solid on coverage. Very balanced without dramatics. Silver has seemed nervous every time they talk to him.

    I had MSNBC on while refreshing my browser over-and-over again on npr.org.  I had to go to sleep around 10pm (central).  It just got to a point where I knew nothing more was going to be decided last night.
    I wish I was a sacrifice, but somehow still lived on.
