3. al Jazeera is 100 times more honest and professional than CNN.

they don't push corporate bilge, or popular entertainment masquerading as "news".

Americans can watch al Jazeera in English on the Internet easily enough.

4. It's not black out if you have internet

Their online feed works fine for those with broadband.

Still, it would be great if they were in everyone's cable lineup.

7. Yes, "Not Available" would be more accurate.

Meanwhile, "Al Jazeera English: Live Stream" available on-line:

5. See, they only 'report' the 'news' when there is no news, or when

they can control it. When they can't control the spin, they cut the line.

That's infotainment.

6. I wouldn't exactly refer to it as a blackout, that makes it

sound like the government has a hand in it (which it doesn't). Here in the Detroit area ,on most cable providers, you can get Al Jazeera Arabic if you choose to pay extra for it.

8. Does cable carry AJ in English?

Sorry to sound dumb, but I have no tv/cable, etc.

Our ISP gets AJ English just fine.

9. Mine doesn't (WOW). I think it has more to do with

area demographics,Al Jazeera Arabic is very popular in our arab community.

You can do this yourself by adding the Livestation feed to CDNTwo. See this thread:
