....on NBC and CNN, the flags behind Obama have the US flag on the
left, while on FOX, the US flag is on the right?

Also, on NBC and CNN the flags appear to be much further apart than on
FOX?

Not sure your positional POV.... but, from what I understand you to
say, FOX is doing it wrong.

The US flag should be to the right of the speaker (left, to the
audience) and closer to the audience that any other flag.

The "further apart" issue may have more to do with the venue or
videographer..... I have no clue.....

The one thing I can't fathom is what NBC and CNN cover separately from
FOX, such that there are two separate and different venues????

Me neither. It was like there were two separate screenings which just
happened to be broadcast at the same time.
