"balanced reporting", one of the poll choices is an interesting concept. I guess balanced depends on who is reporting what and what people who are watching think of that reporting. One of the reasons I like fta is because I can watch news from around the world, I think that is a good thing, if people don't want to watch.....change the channel.

Yes it would be very interesting to see what Al-Jazeera has to say, I have seen Al-Jazeera on DISH Networks at my friends house, nothing I cant live without and yes they are a bit bias to Arab Nationalism among other things. But the other view is always interesting, there has to be some sort of balance..

As long as they have objective news, instead of the subjective garbage that they spew overseas... That is why we have a free country, and most of the the middle east is in turmoil...

Record keeping will follow
If the administration feels it's necessary to have large computers to keep records of who you are calling. They will surely want to find a way to track who is watching Al-Jazeera. (Will the cable companies have to turn over records next) I would love to have the opportunity to hear another side even if it slanted. But fear Record Keeping will follow.

I can't wait for Al- to hit T5. There would be far less of the so-called turmoil in the middle east if the US foreign policy wasn't there. I never bought into the idea that it's been going on there for centuries- nowhere near like it is now and we are a signficiant contributing factor. Last edited by crawfrdb; 06-09-2006 at 07:38 PM. |

How can people like you survive in this world, while running off at the mouth with absolute nonsense??? Oh, BTW it hasn't been Centuries, unless you want to say 60 Centuries, because they have been killing themselves off for approx. 6,000 years.... You have no clue, what you are talking about, and Our First Amendment Rights are as strong as ever, so you need to start doing some studying of the Middle East, so that the next time you open your big mouth, you will make some sense out of the knowledge that you have gained...

Al-Manar
I would like to see Al-Manar also. Banning it is not good as someone could decide to ban this board and prohibit discussion of FTA! Old phrase, keep your friends close but keep your enemies closer. From what I've been able to find, it is only available on Arabsat 2B, it got yanked from Hispsat, etc. Seems like everyone "flipped out" at the prospect of it being received here in the states and stopped it.
