Includes: This offering from the No. 1 online video network includes the broadcast networks, cable channels from Disney/ABC, NBCUniversal, Fox, AMC and Turner Broadcasting. Missing are Viacom (Nickelodeon, MTV, Comedy Central), Discovery (Discovery Channel, Animal Planet) and PBS. However, the workaround here is that these networks put lots of clips from their shows on the YouTube website, but you won't be able to see the entire shows.
For much of 2015, graduate students at Columbia School of Journalism took part in the RT Watch project, monitoring RT's (US) output. Casey Michel, who worked on the project, wrote "RT ignores the inherent traits of journalism—checking sources, relaying facts, attempting honest reportage" and "you'll find 'experts' lacking in expertise, conspiracy theories without backing, and, from time to time, outright fabrication for the sake of pushing a pro-Kremlin line".[193][194] The results were compiled in a Tumblr blog.[195]
I know about Netflix I don't know much about Hulu or sling. I want to be able to watch the cw, AMC, ion, TLC, animal planet and a few more. Is that available with sling. And what is that antenna for me that's rabbit ears lol. Whoever pays $100 for cable its not bad I hate to say I am paying $186 a month I am also on a fixed income. Obviously I need help. Any advice would be appreciated.
Another often-ignored cord cutting technology is the indoor TV antenna, the modern equivalent of the old-school "rabbit ears," which can cost under $10 and gives free access to network content. It's not on-demand (unless you shell out extra for a recording device), but for live events like the Super Bowl or the Oscars, having an antenna could be a lifesaver.
During the 2008 South Ossetia War, RT correspondent William Dunbar resigned after the network refused to let him report on Russian airstrikes of civilian targets, stating, "any issue where there is a Kremlin line, RT is sure to toe it."[229] According to Variety, sources at RT confirmed that Dunbar had resigned, but rejected that it was over bias. One senior RT journalist told the magazine, "the Russian coverage I have seen has been much better than much of the Western coverage... When you look at the Western media, there is a lot of genuflection towards the powers that be. Russian news coverage is largely pro-Russia, but that is to be expected."[230]
Warning: This article may give you a headache — and if reading an article about the best way to cut the cable cord causes pain, imagine researching and writing it. The post-cable options are overwhelming, and no one solution does it all, although watching live sports without cable is no longer a problem. There are crazy contradictions to consider, such as how sometimes "triple-play" bundles (TV, Internet and phone) are actually cheaper than "double-play" options (Internet and phone) because of specials. But in all the confusion, one thing is clear: Cable TV is expensive. Americans spent an average of $103 a month — $1,236 a year — on cable television in 2016, according to Leichtman Research Group. So that's the number to beat.
Our guide to watching TV without cable isn't over just yet, though. That because your plan, once you make it, is likely to include at least one streaming service (and maybe more than one). And unless you really like small screens (and who does?) that means you'll probably want to be able to use streaming services on your big, beautiful TV. And that brings us to our next topic of discussion: hardware.
I live on the West Side of Manhattan and watch only local channels using an antenna. Unfortunately the signal is periodically interrupted so that I get sound but not a picture (gray and white horizontal stripes appear on the screen). Is there any way to determine the source of this interference or to counteract it? The timing of it has led me to wonder if the use of cable or streaming in the area is creating the problem.
To some executives, no company offers a more egregious example of how the value of sports has spiraled out of control than Time Warner Cable. In 2013 the cable company, now owned by Charter Communications Inc., agreed to pay an average $334 million a year to broadcast Los Angeles Dodgers games for the next 25 years on its cable channel, SportsNet LA. That's roughly eight times what Fox reportedly paid in the previous Dodgers deal. To cover the cost, Time Warner Cable initially charged almost $5 per month per subscriber, making it one of the most expensive in the bundle.
On 23 October 2012, RT, along with Al Jazeera and C-SPAN, broadcast the Free and Equal Elections Foundation third-party debate among four third-party candidates for President of the United States.[71][72] On 5 November, RT broadcast the two candidates that were voted winners of that debate, Libertarian Party candidate Governor Gary Johnson and the Green Party of the United States candidate Jill Stein from RT's Washington, D.C. studio.[73][74][75]
I have a Fire TV box in the house. I had an extra computer monitor, so I thought I would use the Fire Stick to make it smart. I read a few horror stories about these refurbished units, but I have used refurbs before with no problem, so I thought I'd give it another go. Absolutely perfect. Plugged it in to my only HDMI port and fired it up. Updated, came back on with no problems. I bought an HDMI signal extractor so I could get "audio out" to a little amplifier and speaker set I have out in the garage. In case I need to watch a Youtube video to help me through a vehicle problem, I don't have to go inside to the tv or watch on my tablet. This really allowed me to get a 'no initial cost' tv out to the garage, and turn a ... full review
PlayStation Vue: With the $30-per-month Access Slim plan, you get CNN, Fox News, MSNBC, HLN, Fox Business, and CNBC.

Available on: Roku, Amazon Fire TV, Apple TV, Android TV, Chromecast, and PlayStation consoles
We think it's worth the upgrade to the Hopper though, because along with all the other awesome Hopper features, DISH has integrated Amazon Alexa voice commands into its DVR experience. No longer must you sift through the couch-cushion chasms to find your lost remote. You can simply tell Alexa to turn on This Is Us and cry your eyes out with the rest of us.
I have a Samsung S8 plus. Adaptor failed to work initially. I had to set the USB mode to PTP and it worked perfectly. To set the USB mode go to ---> Settings/Developer Options/USB Configuration. If Developer Options isn't in your settings, then go to the About Phone menu in Settings, then find the "Build number" entry and tap on it seven times. Once you've done that, you'll see a message that says "Developer mode has been turned on."

Hardware question. We are renters and can't cut holes or run wires. TV is upstairs (old TV but we want to get a 46″ flat panel on a black Friday special). Computer using comcast is downstairs. We currently have the $12 cable upstairs. Don't want it any longer. How do I get the "network" to work without drilling holes and running wires. Do I have to get a wireless transmitter for my computer and a wireless receiver for my new TV in order to stream from the playon software to my TV? What external ports do I need to make sure to have on my new TV? Thank You So Much!!!!


Today is week two of Can't Wait Wednesday, joining Wishful Endings in their weekly meme. This week I Can't Wait for The Lost Castle by Kristy Cambron. It doesn't release until February 6, 2018, so I have a while to wait, what's new in the life of a reader. LOL My TBR for 2018 is filling up quick!
What book Can't You Wait for? Tell me in the comments!
Love the sound of this, im a big history fan and would love to find an old heirloom like that.
Wow, I really love the sound of this book. It sounds really amazing and mysterious! Adding it to my wishlist right now.
Sounds like a good read. I used to want to live in a castle when I was a kid - a dark, creepy Gothic one. Yea, I was a strange kid - princes for me I wanted monsters! Haha. Great choice and thanks for sharing.
This sounds really intriguing! I love historical fiction but I just don't read enough of it these days! I love that this is set in three different times and has a Sleeping Beauty element. Thanks so much for sharing this!
Hallo, Hallo - I am joining this lovely linky blog hop for the first time! I've only posted two #WaitingOnWednesday posts and I *love!* how Tressa has modified her Wednesday showcase in a similar vein as I did myself! How lovely to interact with everyone taking part in this weekly tradition!
A castle! A whispering nod towards Sleeping Beauty *and!* a Suspenseful plot!? I personally ADORE finding Historical plots like these - you get so captured by the historic era your time travelling into and then! you're treated to such an involving plot wherein you feel as caught up in the moment alongside the characters living through it all! I started finding a keen interest in Revolutionary France a few years back - gravitating towards works of #HistFic set during that period of time (either during, shortly before or slight thereafter) - so blessed to have found this blog hop, as now I have one of my first 2018 #MustRead finds! Go me!
Today, I am wicked excited about The Crowns of Croswald I look forward to your visit!
That would be fun, huh?!
I preordered it yesterday during Amazon's prime day. Ms. Cambron talked about this book on her author page on Facebook.
Welcome! If you haven't read any of Ms. Cambron's work look up some of her earlier books, they are all great!
Glad you stopped by! I'll check out your post. I promise you will love Ms. Cambron's books. Check out The Illusionist's Apprentice. A take on Houdini.
Oh wow this sounds pretty amazing. I hope it lives up to expectations!
Ms Cambron's books haven't disappointed me yet if anything I've enjoyed the book more than I thought I would.


A balding, middle-aged, kinda dumpy-looking Magic-User operating under the somewhat more august stage name of "Zolobachai of the Nine Visions." "Zolobachai" specializes in spurious divinations and quack healing potions. Though he makes his living cheating people, he's actually a good-hearted softie.
Arnold was trained by Tim Moon-Slider. In the days before joining the Grey Company in their explorations of the Caverns of Thracia, Arnold tangled with the merciless (and humorless) Count Kragan, barely escaping with his life.
While exploring the Caverns, Arnold proved his courage and cleverness repeatedly - indeed, almost compulsively. Notably, Arnold briefly impersonated the Ninth Menegril, an inter-dimensional merchant-prince. He has also crossed the boundary between dimensions to join the Company of Crossed Swords.
Arnold died while exploring the Pharaoh's Tomb, but has since been raised. He has sworn to rescue his companion Maldoor Twice-Shy.

For those seeking pictures taken with Santa and the kids, photographer Gary Edmiston is testing them on a webpage today. Assuming all goes well, we will be posting the link to that location on our website, facebook page and Bandon's Night of 10,000 lights page tomorrow.
I have been checking this site daily looking for the pictures of the kids taken with Santa. Is there anyway to get these before Christmas?
Christy, the photos are available on both our Greater Bandon Association and on our Bandon's Night of 10,000 Lights Facebook pages for over a week now. Will get them up here tomorrow, but you can find them on Facebook right now.
Thanks for your reply. I don't do Facebook. I just haven't found the right link to click on then when I go to your Greater Bandon page to find them.
