Can't log onto Aljazeera English Live...Since 5am est!

[SkyDaddy7]

Is anyone else having problems? I have been glued to it for a week now & this am I can't log on. Just curious if anyone else is having the same problem?

[fasttense]

1. Yes, I'm having a problem too. I've tried several times to

get on but it keeps telling me it can't find the site.

So I saw a post downstream on DU that said cable corporations are censuring and blocking the site in many US states. The corporations decided we can't watch it.

So, I guess our corporate aristocracy just don't want us to watch it.

11. I have been watching it for years however,

this am is the first time I have had problems & it appears others are too!

2. No problems with AJE Live in UK nor in Spain, as reported here:

13. Where are you? Who is your ISP?

I am in Atlanta Ga using ATT. Some people are some people are not. ODD.

19. Huntington, WV

We have Comcast, unfortunately. I'm getting a Connection Timed Out message, so maybe it's a traffic issue? :shrug: I wouldn't be surprised if they're censoring us, but I'm also wondering if it's not just a technical problem. We've had a number of temporary outages over the last month or so.

I can still access the YouTube channel, and other links DUers have posted.

I get a message that says Internet explorer can not display the web page.

This is the link I'm using: AJ English: http://english.aljazeera.net/watch_now/

Is it the right link?

Here is the DU thread that mentions the blackouts in certain states due to corporate censorship.
