ABC, CBS aired no analysis from Dems during Day 2 of RNC coverage, despite airing analysis by Republicans during Day 2 of DNC coverage

Summary: Neither ABC nor CBS aired analysis from Democrats, Democratic strategists, or progressive media figures during their live coverage of the second day of the Republican National Convention. By contrast, both aired analysis from Republicans and conservatives, as well as from Democrats and progressives, during coverage of the second day of the Democratic National Convention.

Maybe the producers thought that going to shots of their talking heads all saying in unison "we're ****ed" was contraindicated.  After all, what would Lord Obama do to the media slobs that fell out of lock-step?

Um, Olber-moron and Rachel Maddow were commenting on MSNBC all night.

Bob Costas called Olbermann "left of Michael Moore" on Dan Patrick's radio show this morning. :evillaugh:

It's not like they really needed to, given that all of their on-air personalities are Dem instruments.
