Also, I just watched (on VVFS) a clip of a woman who was apparently running for president in 2008 who is being racist, despite the fact that she appears to be hispanic, and in the back of a police car.
I've learned to tolerate drama...except on the boat
You know what's funny? I remember when Current was about to replace Newsworld International in 2005. I found that upsetting because I thought Newsworld International was awesome
It turned into DARK AND EDGY PROGRAMMING ABOUT DRUGS AND COCAINE AND MEAT PLANTS AND WARS.
Well, to be fair Current had those Vanguard documentaries already but it did go over the top after the switch from "viewer-driven network" to "progressive politics' Fox News" started.

TVT says that apparently Current was meant to have its current approach at first but they didn't really get it in focus until Keith Olbermann quit NBC and moved to Current for like 2 seconds.
I still think the idea of a channel driven by the ideas and creations of its viewers is pretty genius, but perhaps the world wasn't quite ready for it at the time.
Maybe someone might be able to revive that idea someday.

If it were successful it would be an easy way to shave some costs!
Honestly, I wish I knew more about journalism. My idea for Current's replacement (which takes the name of "ABC News Now", but has nothing in common with its namesake beyond being connected to ABC News) is supposed to be US and world events presented with no bias and a sober tone.
It could be for whatever. Media reviews, original series, indie films, news reports, you name it. (Except reality shows. Those would kind of defeat the point.)
The whole thing could be an Internet-involved project as well: put your stuff on video.u.tv, if we like it we'll ask you if we can air it. We're in an age where the Internet's just as big an outlet for free creativity as TV and film are, and it'd be a heck of a way for people to get themselves "out there".
Remember back in the 50s when they'd record like Elvis singing YOU AIN'T NOTHIN BUT A HOUND DOG and then they'd turn the record over and reverse it and it was all NYERP NYERP NYERP NYERP NYERP and people were all like, "That is actually the voice of Satan coming from that song."
Good morning, Lumisquid. How's it going? I see you're enjoying yourself researching Megaman Zero and Megaman ZX.

Spam (its name a portmanteau of the words "Spiced" and "Ham")[1] is a canned precooked meat product made by the Hormel Foods Corporation, first introduced in 1937. The labeled ingredients in the classic variety of Spam are chopped pork shoulder meat, with ham meat added, salt, water, modified potato starch as a binder, and sodium nitrite as a preservative. Spam's gelatinous glaze, or aspic, forms from the cooling of meat stock.[2] The product has become part of many jokes and urban legends about mystery meat, which has made it part of pop culture and folklore.[3] Through a Monty Python sketch, in which Spam is portrayed as ubiquitous and inescapable, its name has come to be given to electronic spam, including spam email. In 2007, the seven billionth can of Spam was sold.[4] On average, 3.8 cans are consumed every second in the United States.[5]

hi, Tre.
Let me know when you finish Stuck, by the way.
I do not wish to read it until it is finish.
Right now it's just a matter of figuring out that juicy middle part in between the beginning and end, which I have a good idea of.
^^what is?
^coolish
Also, I just watched (on VVFS) a clip of a woman who was apparently running for president in 2008 who is being racist, despite the fact that she appears to be hispanic, and in the back of a police car.
Also her name is Petro.
ah.
That is the case.
Lousy stupid goddamn Current, cancelled all its good shows.
I know, right?
First Rotten Tomatoes (which is 1,000,000,000,000x better than the site it's named after) then VVFS. I think they canceled infoMania too.
Now it's all shows about guilt-tripping people into being vegetarians.
infoMania... like Web Soup, but not painful to watch. :/
Connor quit infoMania?!
At that point I just couldn't bear to watch it anymore. The segments were still funny and all but it just wasn't the same.
The whole show went off after like 4 months of the new format.
Well I honestly like Brett more than Connor, but I actually think I remember that. Not the laugh track though.
But seriously am I alone on this? It turned into DARK AND EDGY PROGRAMMING ABOUT DRUGS AND COCAINE AND MEAT PLANTS AND WARS.
so what you're saying is
you're responsible for this
Don't lie to me Anonus
I know you used that voodoo magic.
Yeah, but they went over the top with it.
Fox News for liberal people, basically.
it worked way better as a Youth Channel.
Maybe someone might be able to revive that idea someday.
Yeah.
Maybe that's a thing I can pitch if I ever get into broadcasting.
We'll call it UTV.

Exactly.
The problem would be acquiring the overhead.
also, mentlegen
Hi Clock.
I wasn't referring to UTV as a news channel.
Snap crackle pop, motherfucker
