NBC has the best election music and a quality bench of players, although some of them, like Norah O'Donnell, have migrated over to CBS. Brian Williams keeps it down the middle. CBS may be to elections today what ABC was a decade or two ago, with more gravitas in their reporters and on their panel. Hopefully CNN will not do anything gimmicky like their "hologram" last year... Worst election night stunt ever.
People also forget about Fox Broadcast. They do not simulcast FNC. I've never watched them, but it is an option.

The truth is I have not been watching a lot of network/CNN news coverage over the last year. I am going to take Fox News and MSNBC off the table (and I will record the Stewart/Colbert coverage). My practice has always been to surf around a lot, and I do check in on PBS, but while they are strong on analysis, they are not usually the best on breaking news. I like to have one primary source - for me that used to be CNN and or NBC, but I have almost zero faith in CNN any more, and am not sure where NBC is compared to the other two. I am leaning towards CBS, as I have been relatively impressed with their new regime. Which of the four main options (CBS, NBC, ABC, CNN) would people here recommend? -- TV or Not TV ....
