"You can thank the RIAA/union lawsuit fallout. FoxNews used to have a 24/7 feed of their cable broadcast but they cut it."

The whole internet is shutting down, it seems to me, because of this RIAA nonsense.

Seems like most web broadcasts are gone..most music sites are gone, or their libraries vastly diminished, and pret' near every newspaper I log onto wants me to register, come up with and remember a password, then wait for an email to go back to the site to read the story.

So now...when I go to a NY Slimes story, or LA Slimes story, or Jerusalem Post story, and they all want me to register (which is but a precursor to charging me for reading the site, I believe) I just shut down the page and find it elsewhere.

Usually in a google cache!

I'm tired of that too.

For the NY Times stuff, there is a user name and password that was shared around here at FR, but I can't remember what it was. Anyone else know?

God speed to all of you and especially our brave soldiers.

One day soon we shall all awake to pix of Sodom's head on a pike.
