It's really refreshing to get a newscast without loaded language and corporate bias.

Oh, you'll never see a pro Israel story there, but the rest is great.

After 11 years of never watching news on TV, they're about the only ones who aren't painful for me to watch since they don't editorialize. They just tell the stories.

Unfortunately, I'm stuck with comcast for both internet and teevee. Had to upgrade just to get something other than Fox for news, can't afford another upgrade to get Al Jazeera.

I've had it long enough that it's no longer cheap, but it's reliable in everything but heavy snow and has a good range of channels, although most channels are cheaping out on content and TCM's new program chief sucks warthog ass. Pardon my French.

My next move will likely be to a Roku box.
