5. They run it twice a day on public access cable here
"Live" in the morning, then repeats again in the evening. It seems like they just pull the feed from FSTV.

3. Yes, it is on twice a day at 8:00am and 6:00pm in D.C. on 89.3 FM
We all need to spread the word about one of the last remaining journalists, Amy Goodman,who isn't afraid to ask the tough questions to people on BOTH sides of the aisle.

6. I generally like Amy Goodman, and have listened to her many times.....
But she is not perfect, and has her own set of biases that don't always work for me.

That being said.....however, when compared to the stable of Media hoes we have to deal with day in, day out...she certainly is a breath of fresh reporting. That's for sure.

10. Wow...
What am I missing...I have watched her from day one and have never perceived her to be anything other than honest and objective. In fact, sometimes I think she is too laid back! Her style is bland and that may not be very appealing to those accustomed to the Hollywood image of network anchors on MSM. I love Amy and FSTV on Dish Network..she can also be seen on World Link TV on Direct Satellite TV.

9. I was really happy to discover that after I cancelled CNN
and the rest of my basic package with Dish, I still got FreeSpeechTV. Yippee! So I took the money I saved and donated it to FSTV.
