America’s Exit Poll on XMPR

Filed under: News, Radio Today — Charlie Summers @ 12:23 pm

This coming “Super Tuesday,” XMPR (XM Satellite Radio Channel 133) will be running a news special from PRI/WNYC/New York Times/BBC on the election; air time is 7:00 PM to 3:00 AM Eastern time. More information (although d*mned little…) is available at http://www.americasexitpoll.org/

Note this is from The Billion Dollar President and The Morning Show production team, so plan on it being light on actual news and long on happy-talk segments apparently designed for focus groups comprised of drug-addled or brain-damaged teenagers, but it should at least cover the basics of the election in real-time between the chatting-with-elementary-kids and what-clothing-the-spouse-is-wearing segments. (Lord, what I wouldn’t give for someone to challenge NPR’s radio news dominance with anything not designed for old people’s twisted ideas of what kids want…)

Yeah, I want to get my scathing review of The Billion Dollar President posted, asking the question, “Didn’t John Hockenberry used to be a respected journalist?” but I haven’t had the time. Apologies, but I’ll get there, I promise.
