Current rules everyone should have it, choose what goes on it and watch it.

I have taken it upon myself as a citizen that all Americans can be participate in interactive news.

You want them to cover it, they will, you want to cover it yourself and send it to them, want your flash animation to be adored by the masses send it to current.tv, go ahead BE the media.

Cover the protest you went to, talk to a friend that just got back from Iraq, talk to the bum on the side of the street, if enough people like it it will be on air.

Current TV RULES!

2. As I've said before ...
CurrentTV has the potential to be GREAT and it can be an extremely valuable asset to us if we use it properly.

:bounce:

If you don't get CurrentTV at the moment, you can still view the pods (videos) that were submitted to the network and vote to get them on the air. Some of them are REALLY good! :-)

They tell you what videos are coming up when on their front page.

www.current.tv

They let the visitors "greenlight" videos from the public at:

15. I emailed "Dish" to ask them to add "Current TV."
I used this form

http://www.dishnetwork.com/content/aboutus/contact_us/index.asp

and chose "Programming" in the dropdown.

20. I don't think its worth looking at
I don't like it at all. As far as I'm concerned Direct TV could drop it tomorrow. In fact its really a shame that News World International had to go away for it to come into existance. NWI was infinitly better.

22. OK, let's say it's bad right now.
It could still get better.

We can choose which videos to greenlight at:
http://www.current.tv/studio/screening

Those of us with video cameras or friends with video cameras can upload to the "Current TV" website.
