Free Speech TV. I'm always late to the party but
for those who are later than me, I discovered that I have Free Speech TV on my satellite TV service. This morning I watched Democracy Now!, two hours of Thom Hartmann and Grit TV with Laura Flanders, whom I have missed since Air America days and that's only a few hours. There is so much more. They use Al Jazeera English for many of their news reports. How refreshing, after having my intelligence insulted over and over again by CNN, the MSNBC early day time line-up and all the other broadcast propaganda news stations, there is finally real journalism available.

Here is a link to their page that directs you to where you can get them:

2. Thom Hartmann is my favorite.
Sometimes he lets repugs off the hook when he should be able to just bury them in their own crap, but for the most part he slaps them around pretty good.

3. Free Speech TV? ... Not on Comcast!
Comcast will be carrying Al Jazeera long before it adds Free Speech TV.

and except for rare things like this, I usually don't miss it.

6. You can stream the Al Jazeera news 24/7 right
here: http://english.aljazeera.net/watch_now/

I suppose some of the shows have streams on their own websites.
