A review of recent time allotments.

This evening was a rather nice hour as Aaron did most of his camera time live. It's his forte. He got us through the horrible day of September 11th when everyone else and buildings were crumbling. He thinks on his feet and supports those around him before he thinks of himself. His actions WHEN LEFT TO HIS OWN RESOURCES and not scripted are almost far to humble but always generous of spirit. He adds a lot of emotional content to things when he is left to do that. It doesn't really come across on videotape because the 'voice' isn't ALL of Aaron's broadcasting.

So the time distribution goes like this:

June 21st

Aaron - 15 minutes (6 live)
Others - 29 minutes
Commercials - 16 minutes

June 22nd

Aaron - 18 minutes
Others - 24 minutes
Commercials - 18 minutes

June 23rd

Aaron - 25 minutes, I think all but 5 minutes were live.
Other - 15 minutes, and by the way the 'others' were primarily MINORITES. Wow.
Commercials - 20 minutes

There was a big improvement tonight and they even showed all socially responsible commericals with Tom Cruise, too. Dare I hope it continues.
