I'm layed off and I've had to drop my satalte service.
Is there a free, online site where I can watch live, streaming FOX and other stations?

Hulu, is a site that hosts different tv shows. But not sure about news channels. Maybe there’s something on Fox’s website that could point you where to go.

Hulu is fine if you have a GOOD broadband connection.

You would also be surprised what you can find on Youtube. My wife and I saw the entire Jeeves and Wooster series.

I believe FoxNews streams some of its shows live. Not sure which ones. Lately I have been watching the original Star Trek full version on CBS’s YouTube channel.

First, most over the air tv stinks these days. Second, the poster is in Pennsylvania. If he is in a rural location or even a valley, reception may be nonexistent.

We already know he has a computer with an Internet connection, TV is a step backwards.

Except in urban locations, no indoor antenna will really cut it. A roof antenna, or at least an outdoor antenna placed in the attic, would be the minimum.

Almost all the major networks have most of their top shows available for full episode playback.

I usually just google the show name and “full episodes.”

I watch some shows on the net. Go to the major networks and you can see what they have free. It’s great. Hulu.com is also wonderful.

I’ve watched “24” episodes I’ve missed on Hulu, and the quality has been as good as TV with much shorter commercial breaks.

crackle.com has movies. Hulu.com is good for sitcoms, news specials, and movies. Also, if you go to the fox website you can livestream the strategy room which is done by fox regulars all morning and into the afternoon. They have a different host every hour. You can also make a list of video clips from the days news on the fox website under their video section and watch them from a playlist. Most of the news sites have that now. There are many more, but these are the best. I haven’t had TV for years and don’t miss it at all. Everything I watched on TV and then some is available on the net. I connect my laptop to my big flat screen TV and watch it on that, or wherever I happen to be....even while cooking in the kitchen. :)

Please don’t waste your life trying build an antenna. You can buy a better version of that for around $16. They work extremely well. Try this model:
