Political parade

CNN's coverage of the elections lifted my hopes concerning the mainstream media and how they are approaching younger viewers. The coverage was streamlined and interesting, and used many different approaches to display data and opinion. there was no point when I felt talked down to, and young voters were respected for the power we held over what happened that day. By far, CNN had the best coverage, and it seemed to me to be fair and unbiased. I cannot compare it against anything else, but also I am somewhat informed and noticed no obvious problems with what the people were saying. On the other hand, I was supporting Obama and even the republicans in the group were saying that he had a distinct upper hand, so it could have just been the endorphins. CNN has lately been bragging that they were the most watched channel that night, breaking records and having unprecedented coverage. In my opinion, this was not their doing, but simply a renewed interest in politics stirred by Obama and the many youth vote coalitions that slammed us with the question about if we are registered to vote over and over again.
