AND THAT IS MY BOTTOM LINE.
Anything else is becoming a waste.
I wonder if those who want to do it are falling short in the cash outlay department. (Hint for ya' Al Gore.)

http://indtv.tvhttp://www.indtv.tv/vlog/vlog.htmlAnd they insist that it's not a news channel, and it's not a political channel. It's a lifestyle channel for the MTV set. So don't get your hopes up on that front.

9. I've rethought this. Gore is probably just staying low-keyed about it |

A team of DU'ers has been working for the past two years to buy a cable channel for 24-hour news programming. We have the support of some heavy-hitters. I don't want to give details at this time, but I'll keep DU readers posted. Cheers -- Francis Goodwin, WNT project manager.
