Saw Brian on Prime and I will def have him on one screen, you guys on one, I keep an eye on patriots .win or rsbn to see how MAGA is taking it, and I'll have msnbc on audio if there isn't a feed. No tv since 2001.
It's been a tough year for everyone with the massacre in Israel, the excessive destruction in Gaza and this election that features an Insurrectionist and convicted criminal that puts our democracy at risk. People we see everyday on the media have greatly aged, like we all have. What's done is done. I keep in mind the lyrics of one of my favorite ballads, 'what will be will be, que sera, sera.' I'll watch MSNBC until I get an idea of where it's heading. Then, a prayer and off to bed.
We always watch Fox News on Election Night, then flip to CNN for balance. Currently, I’m resigned to whatever the American voters do. I’ve cast my ballot and done what I can.
I've missed Brian Williams, but after today I don't think I can make myself turn to Amazon for news.
I spent election night 2020 dry heaving and walking on the treadmill until I couldn't walk any more -- I expect this year will be even worse. Were I better at managing stress and anxiety, I'd be like the commenter below and just binge watch Jane Austen movies. Instead I anticipate 15-20 miles, alone, twitching and listening to Rage Against the Machine. I'm not looking forward to it.
After Bezos made the decision to *not* endorse the only viable candidate, I’m canceling my Prime membership! I encourage you to do the same! Bezos won’t miss my subscription fees, but it’s *my* money, & I choose not to contribute to Bezos, the spineless invertebrate.
Lots of political bullshit happening here in Canada 🇨🇦 as well, fortunately not to the levels of Trump & his wealthy pals Elon & Putin. Well, they've easily sucked him into believing they're his besties.
I've followed his nauseating crap and the detestable rulings of the unbelievably crooked Supreme Court for a long time.
All I can say is that we have to pray and believe that democracy will prevail.
And thank God for Jack Smith, @7Veritas4 and the incredible work he & his team are doing.
And a huge 'Hail Mary' ❤️ to Kamala Harris and Tim Walz. 🙏
I'm not watching election covarage on Jeff Bezo's channel - no matter who is headlining. The results won't be in for days unless Harris wins by a landslide - Trump will not win by a landslide. If he does, it will be in the Supreme Court.
Literally my plans: “I’ll be curious to see what Brian Williams is up to on election night as I hop from Jake Tapper on CNN to Steve Kornacki on Peacock to Sam Stein at The Bulwark’s YouTube page.”
Given Bezos's stifling of the WaPo endorsement of Harris, I can't help but wonder if he'll put his thumb on the scales w/r/t Prime's election night coverage.
My feelings exactly. Why would I watch this? I don't have a cable subscription anymore and thought this might be a good replacement for election coverage, but I'm not going to do that now. I live in a remote area, and have depended upon Amazon for a number of things. I am going to be looking for other options for what I can. I probably cannot eliminate it entirely from places I buy things from, but I can try to use it less.
My work scheduled a conference that week, so I'll be out of town on and after election night! AND, I have to attend all day and nighttime events. How in the world will I be able to keep it together? Especially since I don't talk politics at work EVER. I have one work bestie who I know shares the same values/views, so we'll be white knuckling it together.
After 2016, I’m too nervous to watch any of it, and we won’t have a clear winner by bedtime in the East. I’m gonna watch Pride and Prejudice and go to bed early.

Amazon's reputation is not so stellar any more

Can't watch anything but MSNBC with Rachel, Nicole, Lawrence, Joy et al

Another great, newsletter worthy of sharing.

And thanks for all you do on The Bulwark. 😊
Well thanks to Bezos not permitting the WP to endorse Harris I won't be watching this

My Tuesday night AA meeting ends at 930, after which I’ll go to bed.
