The Al Gore channel 2005-08-02 02:38:59 Reply

While it's not about "Al Gore" it's a new type of non-partisan channel *cough* chaired by Al Gore aimed educating and showcasing topics ranging from parenting, to fashion, finances, and current events.

Maybe it can be a good thing, but Al Gore concept + TV = Exciting? Kinda gives me the chills. Does anyone get this channel?

More info here


I must lollerskate on this matter.

There's already a C-SPAN 3.

Anyway, I'll guess try to browse through those shitty cable channels no-one watches to see if I can find it.

Al Gore in charge of a channel?

Talk about a sleep fest.

Sure. He created television, too.

Seriously, it can be non-partisan and entertaining--just keep Gore out of production and editing--let television experts do what they do best and choose and create programs, and Gore can do what he does best, namely, bore the snot out of people and summon fire spirits.

*dramatic music*

Judging by the article, the viewers make most the content. Which mad me think that the channel will be substandard if they aren't even going to do the work to acquire decent programming. But then I realized it's better than a channel shows created by Al Gore.

The commericials would have been something like this:
Wow! Propaganda and a sleep inducer all in one channel! Thanks Al Gore!

It coud've turned into the liberal equivalent of fox news.

Wait, so it's nothing more than a televised blog with a Google news feed? MY GOD, HIS WIRING MUST BE SHORTCIRCUITING.
