Disc A · Nov 8-9 2000
Second recorder; first disc of tape V22. The day after the 2000 election, Wednesday, November 8, 2000. It opens around 5 AM Eastern, channel-surfing the overnight coverage with the race still undecided: CBS (the New York Post's 'BUSH WINS!' front page), MSNBC/NBC News (William Daley, Don Evans, Ed Rollins, Pat Caddell, Lawrence O'Donnell, Paul Begala), ABC overnight, CNN (Walter Rodgers in London) and ABC's 'The Vote' (Geoff Morrell in Austin, Rep. Rick Lazio). After a pause it picks up that evening on Fox News' The Edge (Jeb Bush, J.C. Watts, Jim Gilmore, Laura Ingraham), MSNBC's Hardball (John Sununu, Rep. Chaka Fattah) and NBC News' Decision 2000 special report (Dan Abrams, Campbell Brown, Chip Reid, NAACP chairman Julian Bond, Carl Bernstein, Norah O'Donnell), then ABC News Nightline's 'History on Hold' from Austin with its ads intact. After another pause: the end of CNN's Crossfire (Thursday, November 9, 7:55 PM ET; Bush leads by 225) and MSNBC's Decision 2000 at 8, cut off at the end of the disc. Until Nightline, every break was skipped by changing channels.
