The internet is also a great place to locate a new show...like Joan Rivers has done.

A FReeper news show might be nice.

The internet is the future of entertainment...TV is so last century.

All the Dems love having an internet dependent on advertisers who are dependent on government ‘welfare’ spending.

It’s a joyful thing to see the network beasts being starved, but I really don’t understand the value in Internet advertising. I block what I can with Adblock Plus and tuneout the rest. I don’t think I’ve ever clicked on more than a couple of ads, and that was years ago, at which point I realized anybody on the web that had to advertise did so because they couldn’t get a good google rank because they had inferior products, services and/or prices.

Was watching some spy program on TV last night. There were 11 different commercials before they finally returned to the program. Just confirmed why I don’t watch TV much any more.
