Clinton Wins: Notes

By SteveK 

Sen. Hillary Clinton is the projected winner of the Nevada Caucus, and the networks called the victory at almost the exact same time. MSNBC named Clinton the winner at 4:06pmET, while CNN and Fox News were right behind at 4:07pmET.

Also, ABC broke into regular programming around 4:17pmET with a report on the Clinton victory, while NBC News ran a news special at 4:23pmET.

And disagreeing with the “CNN=too cautious” comment by an anonymous emailer from the previous post, this from another tipster: “So lemme get this straight: Networks get ripped for calling a race too soon, then get questioned for ‘being too cautious’ when they wait?”

Update: From an anonymous emailer: “CBS News projected Clinton’s win before anyone — e-mail alert hit my in-box at 3:59”
