Al Jazeera's Fault Lines to air "Ferguson: City Under Siege" report Saturday at 7 PM EST



Here is the promo for this show that interestingly enough, I saw aired last night at least twice on the SyFy channel's airing of two episodes of "Defiance", which is a Sci Fi show depicting a dystopian future coincidentally also in the area of St. Louis as shown by the arches here, where alien races live under a more fascist Earth Republic rule. As I noted in another post, it's probably too late for writers this season to change anything, but it might be interesting to see if the Earth Republic is scripted to be inspired for their mechanisms of leadership by what has gone on in Ferguson this week.





Interesting also that Al Jazeera would have promos on the SyFy channel, which I don't think I've ever seen before.
