Anyone see it?
Anyone?
Bueller?
What a farce, this news coverage. I can't believe that this wasn't broadcast statewide. We should revoke their license.

Well, it's an interesting question as to WHO is responsible. It was organized and broadcast by KOBI. Did they restrict the broadcast by other local stations in other parts of the state? Or did other local stations simply choose not to air it?
Note that it's going to be rebroadcast statewide on OPB.

Probably not much net effect on the race given the very limited audience.

Backbeat, here here. Of all the criminal acts of manipuation the GOP pulls, turning the noun "Democrat" into an adjective chafes the most. Man that pisses me off.
<h2>Incidentally, if you want to watch it on a bigger screen, the debate will be rebroadcast on OPB Thursday at 9pm.</h2>
