than any of the MSM would dare. And the topics are all of interest, at least as much as I have watched so far, and then some.

I watch everything online and use anti-ad software so I rarely get commercials, but whenever I get around a TeeVee, I am usually driven out of wherever it is because I just can't handle ads. I'm not sue of all the reasons I can't tolerate ads but the main reason is that they all yell at you or have some annoying tone that I am really sensitive to... well, that and PTSD. It makes me feel comfortable being a recluse of sorts. Haven't had a TeeVee in my home for decades and I like the internet because it's mostly all on my terms.

But I'm still a news hound and have to know what's happening out there. I grew up with politics and find it hard to not pay attention since it affects my life in so many ways and more so each day it seems. I'm glad I can have access to more outlets than I knew about by visiting DU.

Thanks again,

2na.
