The news that is suppressed by the corporate media, some of it, can be watched on DirectTV or DishTV

[ConsAreLiars]

by watching FSTV and notably Democracy Now! Satellite systems. Channel 9415 on DishTV and 348 on DirectTV (but only if you have an HD setup)

Take a look at the headlines, which are covered in the 1st 15 minutes, as listed on the top right of the page at http://www.democracynow.org/ . Check out those that were new news to you. Go back to yesterday, and the day before, and the day before... and do the same.

And then look at the remainder of the hour where other things are covered in more in a more thorough manner.

See what you are being denied by the corporate media?
And then take a second look at wat you are being fed.

If you can't get Democracy Now! via satellite or cable (look around, a few carry it), you can get audio, video and transcripts at http://www.democracynow.org/ . If you can access DU, you an access DN!.

And FSTV has a lot its programs available on demand as well as live streaming at http://www.freespeech.org/ .

The corporate media will just play sports contest versions of politics, never show the reality of the class conflicts that have been the real history.

3. Democracy Now! is also available to those who use the Roku box to stream Netflix to their tvs.

It is on the Mediafly channel, news & politics. Also there you can watch President Obama's weekly address (going back to 2/14/09).

And while looking around, Ochs - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/All_the_News_That%27s_Fit_to_Sing -->

All The News That's Fit to Sing was Phil Ochs' first album. Recorded in 1964 for Elektra Records, it was full of many elements that would come back throughout his career. It was the album that defined his "singing journalist" phase, strewn with songs whose roots were allegedly pulled from Newsweek magazine. It is one in a long line of folk albums used to tell stories about everyday struggles and hardships.

Among these stories was that of William Worthy, an American journalist who traveled to Cuba in spite of an embargo on the country who was forbidden to return to the United States. Civil rights figures Medgar Evers and Emmett Till were lionized in "Too Many Martyrs" (alternatively known as "The Ballad of Medgar Evers".) Two "talking blues" using the melody to the old folk song "John Hardy" jabbed sarcastic at Vietnam and the Cuban Missile Crisis. Even a poem by Edgar Allan Poe, "The Bells", was set to music. "The Thresher" was an ode to the sinking of the nuclear-powered American submarine, the USS Thresher: "And she'll always run silent/And she'll always run deep." Also included was one of Ochs' widest known songs, "Power and the Glory".

The title references the motto of The New York Times, "All the news that's fit to print;" incidentally, the Times was founded by Adolph Ochs (no relation to Phil), so this may be a joke or allusion to the coincidence.
