The closest thing to exciting on Current TV is the progress bar on the bottom of the screen.

Actually, Al Gore invented amps = short for amperes; he also invented the methodology to count the number of electrons in an ampere (6.something x 10^23rd IIRC) and wrote legislation that would have allowed electrons to vote in national elections. Having brought those innovations to tech-hungry populace, he naturally feels empowered to utilize current, the flow of electrons, any way he pleases.

He's just dying to call it "The Al Channel"

He is lucky he isn't being sued by the investors he conned into the idiocy.

I tried watching it, forget about liberal bias, these people are to stupid to understand how to be biased.

They know less about the news then the audience does.

Which is why they have no audience...except for maybe family members.

Imagine all the lawsuits Algore will face from the families of people bored to death watching Gore-TV.

I don't think his own family is going to sue him.

So that pretty much eliminates any lawsuits coming from viewers.

Algore invented Algore.I doubt God would have..

Isn't the first steps with this are;

See a lawyer to find out what options are open.
They will usually tell a client to wait till the infringing party makes money off of the infraction.

Since that will never happen, why sue?

Current Communications contends that it had registered several variations of "Current" trademarks before Current TV was introduced in April 2005.

Minnesota Public Radio claimed in a suit filed earlier this month that it applied to register "The Current" as a trademark four months before Gore's network changed its name to Current TV.

So why haven't these two companies sued each other?

Gore invented the sun so Edison could see what he was working on.

Then global warming is all Al Gore's fault because without the sun, the earth would be frozen over and in darkness.
