So Keith is moving to Current

[nadinbrzezinski]

Well my cable system will get me to change my service for the first time in literally decades.

Yes. just checked where it is available and what service package... so will be going on later on to the service center to take care of that.

I WANT to be able to watch Keith when he comes back to on air... even if that kills the rating for Lawrence O'Donnell... such is life.

1. It won't be for a few more months from now. n/t

[nadinbrzezinski]

2. Yeah but we figured get used to the new lineup

also it has a few interesting channels, like Nat Geo and the science channel

[Tx4obama]

3. Well...

the 'new' line up on Current TV isn't there yet.
Keith is now the Chief News Officer and will have an equity stake in Current Media, so he'll probably be bringing in a whole new prime time line up.
I looked at the channel last night and didn't see any news shows there, just lots of documentary type shows.

[nadinbrzezinski]

4. I know, I am talking about the CHANNEL lineup

Why I mentioned Science Channel and Nat Geo

[Tx4obama]

5. Ah, okay. And here's a link to their 'current' shows

6. I just called Insight, my cable provider. The woman I spoke to had never

heard of Current TV. I suggested to her quite emphatically that if she wanted to retain my business, she and her company had better find it quickly.

7. This is how we can help build this new system for KO and AL. Those

who do not have Current in their package should all let the cable company know that they are going to leave if they cannot get them easily.

[Dappleganger]

13. Everyone with cable service should call their provider...

If they don't offer it then insist that they do, and if they do offer it thank them and ask that they put it into the basic package.

8. Doesn't Comcast own a pretty big share of Current TV?

Ironic :evilgrin:

[Bluenorthwest]

11. No, they do not. It is owned by private parties now including KO

as well as Al Gore and Joel Hyatt, who were founders of the project.

[Tx4obama]

15. Comcast owns a 10 percent stake in Current TV

[NotThisTime]

16. It does and it is isn't it... I'm afraid they'll drop the channel from my lineup but I can get

direct tv in July

[Cleita]

9. Keith will probably have repeat shows like Lawrence does so you

can watch both at different times, only one will be live though.

[lbrtbell]

10. Screw Lawrence. He's an utter bore.

I couldn't stand him when he was subbing for KO on "Countdown", and he's no better now.

[Dappleganger]

14. +1

[madinmaryland]

18. -1

I find LO to be quite knowledgeable and interesting. Especially when he gets fired up. (albeit not often enough)

[Bluenorthwest]

12. The Vanguard series you will love.

It is the best documentary journalism on TV. Hands down. I recommend viewing their previous shows at Current's website as well. Great stuff, now to get more eyes via star power. You will dig Vanguard, NB, oh yes you will....

[nadinbrzezinski]

17. Well tomorrow's project is to connect the box

and get it started... ah the joys.

I just don't feel like doing it right now.

[madinmaryland]

19. Channel 192 on Verizon FiOS, for those of you that have Verizon.
