I'll add: Why can't MSNBC just go fully liberal 24/7 and be our weight against Faux News?  You could fire Buchanan, Scarborough, and all those idiots, and use the money to hire someone to make sure Tweety takes whatever meds they are that make him occasionally reality-based.

Alas, lib'ruls can't be on teevee.

I don't have cable, so I can't really comment.  My PBS stations are nests of communists, though.  Bill Moyer, Tavis Smiley, NOW, Frontline ... weird French stuff.  ;)  Cable news holds absolutely no appeal for me.  I'd heard about Keith Olberman for a year before I saw his show, and I was really disappointed.  The only thing I think I am missing out on is Comedy Central, for the Daily Show & Colbert Report.  But I can watch clips on line.

Come, my friends, 'Tis not too late to seek a newer world.

I'm not sure if we've switched to France 24 (or whatever it is) or if we're still on BBC World News here.

Of course you like Moyers.  We all like Moyers.  Don't we have to sign a card or something requiring it when we get involved with the party? ;)

The Daily Show is great.  Colbert can wear on me a bit, but "The Word" is one of the funniest segments I've ever seen and makes him worth it.  Neither of them are dry and mean enough to match Bill Maher.

For The Daily Show, try this UK tv channel:

No Colbert Report here though.
