did you try hulu and joost? I would check, but I don't think I can get either of them outside the US.

Hulu's commercials are coming off ok; the coverage is faux news. but it's smooth going.

This one is streaming MSNBC.

Looking at the MSNBC webcam feed.

And OMG. Is that a prayer mat?

(LOL)

I'm getting mine through the Senate site, but there's no closed captioning like they said there would be.

My broadband keeps crapping out on me. *snarl*

heh. Turns out I'm watching it via Joost, via Fox, via the Belfast Telegraph... and also on my TV on a Greek national channel.

I'm glad it's on BBC1. I'm already teary, man.

Oh, hell. Greek TV was just teasing me. Now they are talking about other news. I guess they'll go back.

Try pbs; it's working okay for me. I couldn't get c-span to work, which I prefer for their hands-off style. Lehrer's a helluvalot better than the douches at cnn.

Though that one lysdexic just linked works quite well too. And there's no narration. Switcharoni!

too late I suppose, but, in four years remember you can stream audio from npr.org. that's what I did.
