1. This site streams MSNBC all day, live.

Livenewschat.eu/politics

MSNBC International. Commercial breaks are filled with European weather, or MSNBC self-promos. They give you 90 minutes at a time, then ask you to register (it’s free), but you don’t have to. Just close and re-open in a new window and you’ll get another 90 minutes.

2. They both do, I've never had to sign up with Livenewson,

A few other good ones are Hulkusc, Hulkusd, Hulkuse, Livenewsus and Zahipedia. Right now the Hulk/Zahipedia streams are having issues. And the 2 livenews sites are 30 minutes behind with MSNBC, always. Morning Joe and Rachel Maddow often live stream on YouTube, they are having the same issues this morning.
You can also stream CNN, FOX and most other network news channels, with these.
I have the channels with my box, but I'm the only into politics in my house, so I usually just stream on my tablet.
Also, I have a 4 yr old sassy tiny dictator, that must watch her shows in the living room in the mornings.

3. The programming is live on Livenewschat, no 30 minute delay.

They just mirror the programming that on tv. And you aren't required to ever sign up, they just stop the stream every 90 minutes to "remind" you to show your support. It's pretty unobtrusive.

This site also streams CNN and several other sources, in the drop-down menu at right. On Friday, one section even live streams Bill Maher. Not sure how they're doing it, but I've been using them for well over a year and there's never been an issue.

Thank you.
There is a live stream of Real Time on Friday nights on YouTube, I believe it comes from the official Real Time with Bill Maher account.

On a couple of my devices, it says plug in not supported. Do you you think if I try a different browser that might fix it?

It works fine on my desktop in Safari, Firefox, and Chrome. iPhones and iPads don't support Flash, and Rockin' Rooster streams over Flashplayer. Not an issue. But if you're trying to stream over iOS, you'll need to get the 'Puffin' browser. It's fast, a really good alternative browser for your phone. It gets around the Flash issue brilliantly by processing Flash content remotely before streaming, so your phone battery doesn't have to do the heavy lifting -- even it is was capable of playing Flash content.

Android platform, I rarely use the computers. I carry a device around with me while doing housework.
I forgot about Puffin before the CBS app, years ago, I used it for the Big Brother live feeds.
Thank you very much for all the useful info.
