I’m going to get flamed for this, maybe, but here goes: the channel is really not that bad.
When I first watched it, I was completely stunned. Real news. They provide real news and serious coverage. It’s actual reporting instead of an attempt at entertainment, as the other cable news channels fall into. If you don’t believe me, just watch it for a day, then flip back over to CNN’s plane coverage or Fox News with O’Reilly yelling at some guest, and you’ll immediately know what I am talking about.
keep watching, keep watching, keep watching.
the change does not come all at once
I noticed the same thing. They actually had very good reporting at times. But alas . . no I cannot. Us infidels have to hang together or we will surely hang separately.
I have not watched, and probably won’t because I just have tuned all the cable news networks. I have heard it actually is news vs. the constant focus of the other networks purely on creating the division and the ‘soap opera’ and Rush calls it.
While I don’t doubt it is a better format, I am seriously skeptical it is going to share a balanced view of US or internal events. What have you seen so far?
I’m gonna admit I watched it too, when it first aired.
I thought the coverage was fair but, other programing made me just ignore the thing, as it will become what Saud wants eventually...
It’s called news from a jihadi perspective! Got watch RT news. Some of it is pretty good in some respects but I know their perspective.
America needs a jihadi news channel like a fish needs a bike!
You have the freedom to watch it. Free Republic is first and foremost about freedom as the constitution defines it, including watching whatever you want.
I’m not giving those who wish death on my and mine ONE chance.
Continue to watch, it’s a free Country, but when the mind control starts working you’ll wish you hadn’t.
I agree with you. If you want any news from around the world, this is just about the only place to get it. Not horribly biased. No Islamic jihadi stuff. It’s not bad. Compared to other networks, it’s actually good. .
OK...I had alerted earlier #9 that a show was going to be on SUN night for 4 weeks called ‘BORDERLAND’
I ‘watched’ the first segment and it is 6 Americans ‘investigating’ the border in AZ.
It consists of 3 ANTI ILLEGALS, a White Blonde (F) from AR who is the leader of the Arkansas Young Republicans, a Black (F) entrepreneur from NV (a NYC 9/11 survivor) and a former White Marine and Constitution Party US Leader from IL.(Randy Stufflebeam)
The PRO side consisted of a White Artist(M) from NY who believes in NO BORDERS ANYWHERE, a White Farmer from WA (M) who admits to hiring Hispanics to harvest his crops (they also throw in he is R in most ways) and a Nicaraguan Activist from FL (F) (she was naturalized a year before the filming).
They start by visiting a morgue in the Tucson area, visit a ranch and assist a border group that distributes water and food for the ‘stragglers’.
The ‘task’ ends up being they split the six up and send them to the hometowns etc to ‘track’ 3 of the people who had died in the desert and ‘get their story’.
So far, it is balanced, with each getting to rebut a statement so neither ‘side’ gets to ‘get a leg up’.
Till now, the most boisterous are the Black Female, the Marine and the Nicaraguan activist....
Like I said, balanced so far....
