It was exclusively CSPAN in our home. Any commentary I wanted I got from free republic.

Yup, I watched every night on youtube. TV ratings don’t equate into how many people actually watched anymore.

Many in my family listened to the Cspan Radio stream. These ratings are more an indictment of the MSM than Trump. They should be panicked, not giddy.

Yeah, I watched it on YouTube.

As I was at work when the speech was given, and was unable to see/hear it 'live' I watched on YouTube after I returned home from work...

Donald Trump has also been on tv non-stop the past year.

It’s not just that most people tuned in to see Sarah in 2008, a lot of people skipped the MSM this time around.
Carl “I miss the 70s” Bernstein was excoriating Fox news the other day: you know, the “conservative network”; but Fox’s mascara’d Shemp Sheepherder yesterday was repeatedly insisting the Munich shooter was right wing.

A lot of people are finally going through what a lot of us went through years ago: disgust with slanted news wranglers.

CSPAN and online streaming were probably high numbers.

I watched some on streaming but watched the evening events via CSPAN.

McCain had Sarah Palin. Trump didn’t.

We watched via our Firestick & the RNC app most of the time. Watched Trump’s speech via PBS cuz the RNC stream bogged down.

Vote Trump 2016

“FNC, a favorite for right-leaning audiences, topped them all with 9.4 million viewers. And CNN, hitting an all-time high for its RNC coverage, also topped all of the broadcast networks with 5.5 million viewers.”

Interesting enough... These numbers almost match the candidates FB page “likes”. DJT = 9+million HRC = 4.5million

I watched it on Directv channel 347. Gavel to gavel. No commercials or commentators.

Me too.

I watched it on 347 also. Got to see Laura’s speech instead of the Fox panel.
