It's quite informative; some of the commentators appear to have British or perhaps Irish accents; the footage and interviews consist of well-rounded coverage.
The emphasis, of course, is on matters of the region, naturally, ... but they do touch on all affairs global ... and best of all, they don't waste any time (like the big networks here in the U.S. do) on tabloid bologna like hollywood goof-ups ... and all that nonsense.

I watched Press TV once for an hour or so, when I noticed that they were discussing a topic that I know something about, and during this hour they were interviewing some British woman, who was claiming to be an expert, but was a complete idiot. It was full of blatant lies. I've been listening to SW propaganda since back in the early 50s, and I enjoy listening to propaganda. This wasn't propaganda, it was direct lies.
In my opinion, if that 1 hour is any example, the channel is worthless, other than to see a disregard for the truth. It's too bad, because it's nice to see other views of current events, even if slanted, and in this particular case, there were definately ways they could have used slanted truth instead of lies, but they didn't.
