France24 Live Feed is so much better than CNN and the sort

It is on topic, informative, and not sensationalized. There are no annoying unmutable commercials. No Wolf Blitzer. No cable sign in required. Just much better.

and has already proved itself to be one of the most reliable, serious and credible news sources in the world.

They also broadcast in French (of course) and in Arabic.

If you put enough pressure on your cable or satellite provider, they can subscribe to it for almost nothing.
My brother gets France 24 with his TV cable package in SoCal.
