Does anyone know of an online streaming news source focusing seriously on the situation in Iran?
Everything I find is just short pieces about Iran mixed in with a whole bunch of fluff.

1. Twitter rocks for Iranian coverage!
Depending on what you want to read about it, its all there, in short summed up responses. Good-bye to nuance!

5. Thanks. We have Twitter, too.
I am looking for something to stream in the background while we do other things.

3. I second that
Had just mentioned it in another post as well. It's not the best, but pretty good coverage.

6. I've been following Al Jazeera
and the coverage seems almost 'offhand' to me - downplaying the the number and extent of the protests.

7. HuffPo has been doing a good job of aggregating all the news.
