I went for a while into internet radio (podcasts and live radio) for a while. I only hooked the teevee and cable back up for the 2009 inauguration after being urged to do so. What a great day.

Since then all internet. Even commercials on cable were pushing the nasty attitude. I had done my time watching these guys back in the nineties and through 2006.

You are doing good to find anything to watch or listen to, and I truly despair over the monopoly that the merchants of hate and despair have achieved. They've created a different reality for many and they may never come back.
