LOGO went off-air instead of covering the march.
THE VIEW never even mentioned it, even though it is very much a hot topic.
Ellen hasn't commented on Obama nor the March on THE ELLEN DEGENERES SHOW.
It makes absolutely no sense.
"The Spectacle has, indeed, an emotional attraction of its own, but, of all the parts, it is the least artistic, and connected least with the art of poetry. For the power of Tragedy, we may be sure, is felt even apart from representation and actors. Besides, the production of spectacular effects depends more on the art of the stage machinist than on that of the poet."

Capn, LOGO not having any coverage does not make any sense.
I gather that maybe Ellen tapes her shows in advance, so that's why she hasn't mentioned it. I'm surprised she and Rosie O'Donnell weren't at the march/rally.
The View not mentioning it doesn't come as a surprise.

Posted: 10/13/09 at 3:39pmIt was mentioned very briefly on The Today Show when Ann Curry does her news segment. I wondered too why there wasn't any coverage or reporting done about it. But they can do an interview with Rush Limbaugh, which I couldn't bring myself to watch so I turned it off.

I thought I saw the View mention it briefly. I could be wrong. It was actually all over our local news. Logo not covering it doesn't surprise me.

Does anyone watch the MSNBC nightly line-up? I find it hard to believe Keith Olbermann and especially Rachel Maddow wouldn't say anything.
The Daily Show was there, so presumably there's a story in the works.

Posted: 10/13/09 at 5:37pmThe Daily Show said their story on it would be tonight, and also commented on the fact that it really wasn't widely covered on Sunday.

I believe Ellen's shows tape the day before they're aired. So Monday's episode would have been taped last week.

Posted: 10/13/09 at 7:17pmKeith was out as well, probably due to his father being in the hospital. It was mentioned a little bit, but I would expect some more when he gets back.

CNN is the only news network I am aware of that give the issue a large portion of coverage, but 90% of it was Obama's HRC speech and barely a mention of the march.
Phyllis - the VIEW is sooooo gay. Their audience is 70% women and 30% gay men.

Posted: 10/15/09 at 10:05amThe Daily Show's coverage the other night was hilarious, pointed and all around really great.

Posted: 10/15/09 at 10:08pmAgreed. It was everything I was feeling and thinking, but presented much better.

Posted: 10/16/09 at 8:32pmOne can usually count on Jon Stewart and the Daily Show to get things across properly.
