But I think they are the first network to do so, so it's not like they are
the last.:-)

Hmm. Several years ago our local NBC affiliate redid
its news studio giving it that wide open HD look. Too,
bad they continue to squeeze it into that dinky SD
screen. I guess the station owner forgot to budget for
the cameras. ;-)

HI-DEF or LOW DEF NBC nightly news is nothing but Democratic drivel w/o a
editorial disclaimer IMHO.

Truer words were never spoken. I'm already tired of the liberal cheerleading
they and most of the "news" people on MSNBC are doing.

I suppose that you prefer the "real" news from Fox, and the balanced
"reporting" of Bill O'Reilly, or even that female impersonator Ann Coulter.
We definitely need more Americans that agree with their point of view,
that's for sure.

Oh boy, politics!! Isn't it amazing how quickly it enters into discussions?
I tend to watch a little of all the news services including the BBC when I
can.
If you want to see some really slanted ( from my viewpoint) news, watch the
English language broadcasts of Al Jazeera (

No actually I watch all the available news media to try and get all
perspectives to what is going on. I have no particular "favorite"...there
are 2 sides to every story but it has gotten much harder to get unbiased
news regardless of the format or network. Watching both political parties go
at each other so early in a presidential race is already getting old. There
really isn't a place where an independent can get much news unbiased. All
the networks and cable channels seem to have one agenda or other. But from
my observation NBC and MSNBC have gone too far to the left...even CNN with
Wolf Blitzer's sneering attitude towards anything to the center or right,
not to mention Lou Dobb's contempt for almost anything lately. CNN's ticker
constantly running the casualty count is not necessary and Chris Matthews's
show has been nothing but democratic cheerleading and Sean Hannity is way to
far right for me. Tucker Carlson and Joe Scarborough I enjoy watching,
Sheppard Smith's show is pretty straight forward news. Glenn Beck at least
admits that he's conservative and I can live with that and he does have some
interesting takes on things. It really bothers me when the slant is obvious
( right or left) and it is presented to us a "reporting". There are wacko
nuts on both sides...Ann Coulter and Al Franken shouldn't get any air time
IMHO...and I ignore all that type of shameless self promotion. Bill O'Reilly
has gone both ways on many different subjects and I respect his views unless
they get too radical, which they do some times. I remember a time when the
FCC mandated equal time for both parties and in a way wish that would come
back. Then maybe we could get some unbiased news from around the world. Just
watch some of the BBC news perspectives and it removes all doubt why people
who use that as their main source think the way they do.

Any way...back to HD...I could care less if the news is broadcast in HD. Our
cable system doesn't even have ABC HD...the last 11 Nascar races are going
to be on ABC and I'm spoiled with Fox's HD Nascar broadcasts.
Sorry to be so long winded...

True, but they're not nearly as bad as they used to be. When Al
Jazeera started out, the tone was barely distinguishable from Soviet
era TAS and objectivity was nonexistent.

Only after they became a virtual Pariah within the news community did
they adopt some reasonable journalistic standards.
