Al Jazeera in final talks to acquire Current TV

Al Jazeera is finalizing a deal to take over Current TV, the low-rated cable channel that was founded by Al Gore and his business partners seven years ago.

If the deal is completed, Current will provide the pan-Arab news giant with something it has sought for years: a pathway into American living rooms. Current is available in about 60 million of the 100 million homes in the United States with cable or satellite service.

Fitting.  Current showed 'Bowling for Columbine' the week of the Netwon, CT shooting and continued to play the movie repeatedly for nearly two weeks.

All Jizz is already on LinkTV (Mostly Lib BS, not as moonbatty as FSTV but close, though All Jizz is not part of their political BS as much as it is just part of their international news samplings like ITV and Deutsche Welle which they also have on at times).  It's part of my satellite package, and once or twice a month there is something on it I'll watch just for variety sake.

Access to the cable companies that carry Al Gore TV?

According to Ace of Spades, it's a done deal .

7. Sadly the didn't notice Current

I really loved that Channel and its hosts. I am going to miss all of them.

They noticed, but viewers didn't care.   Liberals have their choice of ABC/CBS/NBC/MSNBC and CNN,  why would they search out another echo chamber?

So, Current TV has been taken over by a slightly less dogmatic ideology?

I really like this part - Just one sentence quoted in case this is one of those angry, lawsuit-crazed operations.

Mr. Gore and his partners were eager to complete the deal by Dec. 31, lest it be subject to higher tax rates that took effect on Jan. 1, according to several people who insisted on anonymity because they were not authorized to speak publicly.

I can't say for sure, but I can confirm there is no HD Current TV offered on Comcast.

The only time I intentionally watched AlGor TV, the quality was somewhere between a YouTube video and a badly-copied VHS tape.  The content could have passed for the comments on said YouTube. 

YouTube commentors rank somewhere between toejam and head-injury victims on the scale of humanity.

There's no HD signal for Current on uVerse, but there are two stations running different Hardcore Pawn episodes at the same time.

Oh, the humanity.

Al Gore turned down Glenn Beck's offer to buy the channel. 

http://www.glennbeck.com/2013/01/02/did-glenn-try-to-buy-current-tv/

Quote
Mr. Hyatt said they agreed to sell to Al Jazeera in part because “Al Jazeera was founded with the same goals we had for Current,” including “to give voice to those whose voices are not typically heard” and “to speak truth to power.” Other suitors who didn’t share Current’s ideology were rebuffed. Glenn Beck’s The Blaze approached Current about buying the channel last year, but was told that “the legacy of who the network goes to is important to us and we are sensitive to networks not aligned with our point of view,” according to a person familiar with the negotiations.

No, at least on directv.  Although not sure my big screen could handle the ugly factor if it were in HD.

The only good think about standard definition video on an HD TV is that it reproduces a lot of the blur from the original video.

At least you know you're not going to run into an UndergroundPanther in full 1080p when you're flipping through the channels looking for some 'Storage Wars' reruns.

Buying that Gore station is like buying a star in the sky in order to have it named after your girlfriend.  Outside of your immediate families no one will know about it or give a crap about it, and the star will go on twinkling among the many undistinguished sameness in the darkness.

Some sand rat went into a Sbarro in Jerusalem and killed a couple dozen.

The other sand rats made a "museum" exhibit with a mock up of the restaurant replete with overturned tables, chairs, scattered slices of pizza and dismembered manequins.
