Their constant whoring seriously gets annoying. Fortunately I'm away from it most of the time, but when I'm at home I have to deal with it cuz my parents watch it all the time (usually CNN). They hate Bush also, but I'm simply getting less tolerant of watching or listening to CNN's whoring.

1. Speaking of Cable ...
It is my understanding that many cable users do NOT get Free Speech TV. As a user of Dish TV, I do get it. That, along with LINK TV, has made a big difference, along with the Net, in my view and understanding of the World.

If you get cable, and you don't see FSTV way at the end of the band, then you should call or write your provider and tell them you want it.

I think it is very sad that there is a great, transmitted resource on TV that is not available to everyone. It is like saying that DU is only available to SOME Internet users.

It is also VERY sad that LINK and FSTV are the ONLY stations that I can see, so far, that give people something other than the corporate mind-set propaganda mis-info.

Why is the movement for freedom and truth even in trouble at all today in this age of information? Well who owns the methods of communication and controls the dissemination of what is going on? That's way too clear now!

4. Really. I had it when I had a dish and miss it.
I pull it up on the PC but it does not come in very well. The picture is usually broken up and I do not know why. I wonder if my cable will have it? I have to have cable as I am a renter now and that is what they want me to have, and I can not pay for both, even if they let me put up a dish. You hear news from that women and in more than 3 min cuts.
