Seems to me that they are reporting the results but then changing the subject quickly.

5. The MSM I listen to was reporting results a lot this morning, which is NPR
Between the actual NPR Morning Edition coverage of the New Jersey, Virginia and California elections, and the local affiliate's coverage of Michigan's elections, I was pretty impressed :shrug:

8. NPR Gleeful
I listened to the reports on NPR this morning and I detected an almost gleeful note in Carl Castle's voice as he reported the news.
