The satellite/cable kept me imprisoned because to get things like MSNBC, CNN or whatever I had to pay for a higher priced "package".

This year some kind souls clued me into options like Roku (Fire, and other ones) with a one-time purchase of a very affordable gadget and opening up TONS of streaming (channels?).

But the BIG tip was from a DUer who told me about: 123newstv.tv, livenewswatch.com, and especially ustvgo.tv - so these sites plus just regular YouTube -------------COVER EVERYTHING!1

One good turn (from you) deserves another one - this!1
