Most boring: CBS
CBS had perhaps the most understated of the promos, opting for a musical background with images of the candidates. Props, however, for going sound agnostic in this mobile age we live in.

Longest: Bloomberg

Best in show: CNN in Spanish

Speaks for itself: C-SPAN
Couldn't find a C-SPAN promo, but I'll take care of it for you. You should watch on C-SPAN because they're doing the split screen of both candidates.
