Two possibilities: Either they are using one director and he dislikes holding a shot of a talking head for prolonged periods of time, or the DNC is calling the shots in the booth, and they really want to emphasize the diversity in the crowd. Again, it is not a given that each network will foot the bill for a director, nor is it a given the DNC would give networks that option. -- Kevin M. (RPCV) -- TV or Not TV ....
