Fortunate.
Let me fill you in:
CNN: There's a panel discussion going on offering false equivalencies on every issue
FOX News: Hilliary is the Devil Re-incarnated.

There, now your up-to-date.

Sounds like the standard-def channel might be accessible? We have DirecTV too, but I rarely watch the news stuff, so I wasn't aware out of the outage!
