Laura asks…
When was Anderson Cooper on Channel One news?
Does anybody know the years when he was on? My middle school showed Channel One and I'm trying to think back and see if I remember him or not.

You weren't imagining things!
Nancy asks…
What's your favorite news channel and show?
Fox News, CNN, MSNBC?
O'reilly Factor, Anderson Cooper 360, John King USA, Hannity, Hardball w/ Chris Matthews, etc.
Whats most trustworthy/unbiased and what do you like best?
Not to mention the basic channels ABC, NBC, and CBS, I just don't watch them much.
I'm curious as to what I should look into, though a lot of people say the government controls the news now and that Dan Rather was the last truth speaking newscaster.
(and of course, everyone knows The Daily Show and Colbert Report are the best!)
admin answers:
My favorite News - BBC
My favorite Show - Too many to mention.
Joseph asks…
Why does TimeWarner run local Spanish Language ads on English speaking channels like CNN, Comedy Central, etc?
What is the point? Can someone please explain to me? If you're watching Anderson Cooper or The Daily Show, doesn't that kinda mean that you already comprehend English? So why run an ad in Spanish and not have it understood by the vast majority of the English-only speaking audience. It's utterly dumbfounding to me. Makes zero sense. Someone please explain the logic.
And no it's not for Spanish-speaking person specific product. It's just for any potential TimeWarner service subscriber. I've seen the English version of it many times.

Getting ready for the transition where Spanish will overpower English. Is like you've been warned about the transition from analog TV to digital TV, so this is the same, but from English to Spanish.
Steven asks…
Do you recommend Netflix?
I have been using DirecTV for years because TV reception where I live is very bad. I'm still using my 7-year-old clunky TV (not the thin HD type TV) and reception is perfect. I'm very unhappy with the cost of DirectTV, however.
I just ran across an article on the Internet about Netflix. I don't personally know anyone who subscribes to Netflix so I don't know anything about it. I need to find out how it works before I invest in an HD TV and a device to stream from Netflix. My understanding is that for $7.99 a month for the subscription I will get streaming TV. What is streamed? If I give up DirecTV I won't be getting any channels, like HBO, National Geographic, the History Channel, Animal Planet, right? Well, I really like watching those channels and many others. What about news shows like Anderson Cooper, Larry King (soon to be replaced by Piers Morgan), Nancy Grace, etc.? I really don't want to give them up. I don't watch espisodic shows like Grey's Anatomy, CSI, Hawaii 5-0, etc., and that seems to be a big part of what Netflix offers. I occasionally watch a movie.
Please correct any wrong impressions I may have. I would really like to ditch DirecTV, if possible. Thanks.

I've just started doing the Netflix streaming.
1. It does not stream in HD. At least nothing I've streamed looked remotely even close to HD.
2. You can watch movies and previously broadcast TV series, but certainly not everything. I just searched for the series, Chuck, Big Bang Theory, Fringe and The Defenders, which are series on each of the big broadcast networks. None of them were available for streaming.
3. If you want to watch streaming TV series, you will probably have much better luck streaming them off of Hulu.com
