Let's be honest though. The Dems blew the GOP out of the water with their convention... And Hillary destroyed Trump when it came to the candidate speeches. I went back and watched Trumps last night after Hillary finished and it was night and day. I'm usually very entertained with Trump speeches and bored silly with Hillary but it was opposite this time.

Two very different visions of America and approaches to govern. All Trump did was bitch and complain and play off of the picture he painted of a desperate and weak America. He claimed that he alone could fix it all if we "believe him". Hillary had a much more inclusive attitude, she address issues and how she would fix them... She went a little too far "left" on some issues but all in all she took some very positive steps

Her message is going to resonate better with the majority of people. Trump needs an attitude change if he wants to stay in the fight.

Funny with 40% fewer hours of viewing time... Hillary came in 2nd! Even with almost 4 more hours!

After a solid, if not spectacular, showing from the Republicans just a week ago, the DNC upped the ratings game by a strong margin over the first three days of its convention. It simultaneously outpaced its 2012 showing, albeit not by that much.
Updated returns for Clinton's speech, delivered during the 10 o'clock hour on nearly all television networks,
offer a tally of 33.3 million viewers from the four broadcast networks and three cablers with coverage.
Trump brought in 34.9 million viewers across all nets carrying the speech.
TV Ratings: Hillary Clinton's DNC Speech Falls Just Shy of Trump's With 33 Million Viewers

Excuse me but isn't 34.9 a bigger number then 33.3?

Yes it is s bigger number. Doesn't negate my point that Hillary blew Trump away with her speech

You mean ....During her headline speech on Thursday at the Democratic National Convention in Philadelphia, Clinton noticeably cleared her throat twenty-two times. WATCH: Clinton's Constant Throat Clearing

I'm waiting to understand how during a 3:00 AM phone call she'll be able to command the military if she can't be understood as she's
clearing her throat. More importantly though no one has explained this malady.

Also I'm trying to understand your "blew trump away" statement.
Her 5,191 word speech had her use the personal narcissistic pronoun "I" 80 times!
Trump on the other hand in his 4,330 words used the pronoun "I" far fewer times.
Remember Hillary's slogan "I'm with her"... how narcissistic! Trump is far more inclusive..."I'm with YOU"!!!
Shows the selfishness and personal aggrandizement of Hillary... she is in it for the money!
Trump... already has the money so you explain to me WHY he is going through all this crap and ignorance and bias from the
obviously biased MSM. He is not doing it obviously for the money! My god the White House is a chicken coop compared to
Trump's homes! His personal plane is almost as big as Air Force I! He has his own chopper. So why would this man who
has done something Hillary has never done, i.e. hired thousands of people and yes FIRED people that were incompetent which
Hillary still hasn't done with her Muslim friend The Truth about Huma Abedin that Media Matters Doesn’t Want America to See
The Truth about Huma Abedin that Media Matters Doesn't Want America to See - Breitbart

Just watch the two speeches back to back. All Trump does is bitch about how bad things are while Clinton actually makes the objective viewer proud to be an American. Simple as that

Who said these negative comments about America Trump or Hillary?

Powerful forces are threatening to pull us apart.
Bonds of trust and respect are fraying.
Now we are clear-eyed about what our country is up against.
we will build an economy where everyone who wants a good paying job can get one.
There's a lot of work to do.
Too many people haven't had a pay raise since the crash.
There's too much inequality.
Too little social mobility.
Too much paralysis in Washington.
Too many threats at home and abroad.
Mothers who lost children to violence and are building a movement to keep other kids safe. [A group that says "Pigs in a Blanket fry like bacon]
And I've heard from so many of you who feel like the economy just isn't working.
Some of you are frustrated -- even furious.
And you know what??? You're right.
It's not yet working the way it should.
Americans are willing to work -- and work hard.
Especially in places that for too long have been left out and left behind.
From communities ravaged by addiction to regions hollowed out by plant closures.
give out pink slips with the other.
hreats and turbulence we face.
From Baghdad and Kabul, to Nice and Paris and Brussels, to San Bernardino and Orlando, we're dealing with determined enemies that must be defeated.
No wonder people are anxious and looking for reassurance. Looking for steady leadership.

Hillary, what's your point?

The Democrats still can't get over the fact that more people tuned in to watch Trump than Queen Hillary
after they did everything right

had multiple people swear Queen Hillary is nice

had every minority group come out

supported racist/anti cop groups

blocked Bernie people at all attempts

Kept Queen Hillary away from any real press conferences

finally got the Queen Hillary so medicated up
to prevent coughing attacks and more seizures

What do you mean Democrats can't get over...?

I don't think that stat is surprising nor is it significant.

I am much more entertained by a Trump speech than a Hillary speech... However Trump is starting to get old and he totally blew the RNC speech... If he doesn't have another gear to shift into he is in trouble

WHY????

because they have a rooting interest - has been this way for decades

I mean, why is the sky blue

You are 100% correct. Yes Fox IS biased ... but it also has more left/democrat supporters then any other of the above!
Juan Williams, Julie Regularsky, Dennis Kucinich YES! Most progressive commentator! All on Fox... so where are the equivalent on the above?
Plus what else can be said for the above networks when these two studies PROVE the bias in MSM...

AGAIN Biased MSM who voted with their pocketbooks for Obama in 2008 , 1,160 or 85% of the 1,353 of the Senior executives, on-air personalities, producers, reporters, editors, writers and other self-identifying employees of ABC, CBS and NBC contributed more than
$1 million to Democrats candidates and campaign committees in 2008, according to an analysis by The Examiner of data compiled by the Center for Responsive Politics.
Obama, Democrats got 88 percent of 2008 contributions by TV network execs, writers, reporters
So in reality why would these "journalists" write negative stories about Obama and positive about his opponent?
They wouldn't. They gave money to Obama for his election!

And here is a personal anecdote about one of those MSM editors...
The Editor of NewsWeek, Evan Thomas was once asked about George Bush and this is his response.
"our job is to bash the president[Bush], that's what we do." Evan Thomas responding to a question on whether the media's unfair to Bush on the TV talk show Inside Washington, February 2, 2007.He-Could-Go-All-The-Way: 'Today' Cheers Obama's Football Play

RIGHT HIS job was to BASH Bush. He is a journalist. Unbiased. Objective. Professional. RIGHT??
But when it came to Obama?
This same hard-nosed "bashing journalist"- Editor of NewsWeek gushed about Obama.....
"I mean in a way Obama’s standing above the country, above – above the world, he’s sort of God."
Newsweek’s Evan Thomas: Obama Is ‘Sort of God’

A professional NEWS editor calling a mortal man "sort of God"??? That's not reporting, that's gushing!
So why would NewsWeek or any of the other MSM be objective and produce "objective" information on which people base opinions.
But the proof is here:
This study of some 130,213 news articles on the 2012 presidential match between President Obama and Mitt Romney has proven anew that there was a strong pro-Democratic bias in the U.S. and international press. The study, published in the authoritative journal Big Data Society, also tested the campaign themes the media focused on and determined that Obama succeeded in stealing the economic issue from Republican Romney.
"Overall, media reporting contained more frequently positive statements about the Democrats than the Republicans. Overall, the Republicans were more frequently the object of negative statements," wrote the study authors,
Their conclusion:
"The Republican Party is the most divisive subject in the campaign, and is portrayed in a more negative fashion than the Democrats."
Smooch: Study of 130,213 stories shows Obama bias in 2012 election

Most of the media is biased and to the Left and definitely in denial about it. Then, they bitch and whine about Fox News. Leftists hate the free market. It's all about CONTROL with them.

Money talks. Money to Media means viewers, so the fact that the pathetic speakers at the RNC were causing viewers to change channels or go to bed probably was the prime factor in the programming decisions regarding the conventions.

As Republican Joe Scarborough said;
"DNC Excitement Far Exceeds That Of RNC"

 

[healthmyths]

Well the issue is that the networks violated the Equal Time Rule...

The equal-time rule specifies that U.S. radio and television broadcast stations must provide an equivalent opportunity to any opposing political candidates who request it. This means, for example, that if a station gives one free minute to a candidate on the prime time, it must do the same for another candidate.
However, there are four exceptions: if the air-time was in a documentary, bona fide news interview, scheduled newscast or an on-the-spot news event the equal-time rule is not valid. Since 1983, political debates not hosted by the media station are considered news events, thus may include only major-party candidates without having to offer air time to minor-party or independent candidates. Talk shows and other regular news programming from syndicators, such as Entertainment Tonight, are declared exempt from the rule by the FCC on a case-on-case basis.[1]
This rule originated in § 18 of the Radio Act of 1927 [1]. It was later superseded by the Communications Act of 1934, where the Equal Time Rule is codified as § 315(a).
Federal Communications Commission: Investigate the major networks violation of the FCC's "Equal-time rule"

The head of the Federal Communications Commission promised Thursday to enforce his agency’s regulations requiring television stations to give political candidates equal opportunities for airtime.

“The rules are pretty clear. Rules are rules,” FCC Chairman Tom Wheeler told reporters.
“I hope that we have developed a reputation as folks who enforce the rules.”

Hillary Clinton’s appearance earlier this month on Saturday Night Live could trigger the so-called “equal-time” rules, as could Donald Trump’s plan to host the long-running NBC comedy show next month. That doesn’t necessarily mean Lincoln Chafee will be the next host of SNL—but it could mean that local NBC affiliates across the country will have to give presidential candidates access to equal TV time.

Under a law passed in 1934, the FCC requires broadcast television and radio stations (but not cable channels) to give equal opportunities to “legally qualified” candidates. The law exempts news programs, which the FCC has broadly interpreted to include talk shows like The Tonight Show.

FCC Chief Vows to Require “Equal Time” on TV for Candidates
