PBS World Channel News Programs

For those with access to this channel I highly recommend it for the several foreign news programs.
NHK, DW, France 24 and BBC are all simply wonderful in my opinion. News without blathering talking heads spouting a bunch of maybes or could happens to fill airtime and collect their paychecks.

it is unfortunate that so many seem to live and breath whatever the latest manufactured drama outrage is proported by our cable noise machines.

I avoid CNN & MSNBC like the plague I believe they are to our society.
