1. Gore has a TV network?
Does that answer your question?

3. Yes
http://www.current.tv/

It replaced NewsWorld International.

Personally, I preferred NWI. Current is okay, but it just seems like a bunch of short attention span lifestyle features and overhyping of Google.

Maybe it will transform over time once they work out the kinks and find out what their viewers really want.

4. Yes, and it is NOT the "liberal news source" that everyone at DU
was hoping for, even after it debuted.

I find it to be "youth-oriented" in a condescending way ("Look how cool we are, boys and girls!"), and it went on the air without enough material on hand, necessitating a lot of reruns in the first few days.
