If I absolutely must watch "Some Premium Show X", then I may be stuck with TV service providers. After cancelling my TV service and going with OTA, NF and Hulu, I can still watch television, I just don't get to watch premium content like HBO/SHO originals. I cancelled my service, changed my viewing habits and I'm saving more than $100/month.

Pentagon Reveals News Correction Unit 757

Posted by ScuttleMonkey on Tuesday October 31, 2006 @05:16AM from the propaganda-juggernauts dept.

Jonas Wisser writes "BBC is reporting that a newly created Pentagon unit has a mandate to fight 'inaccurate' news stories. From the article: 'The Pentagon has set up a new unit to focus on promoting its message across 24-hour rolling news outlets, and particularly on the internet. [...] A Pentagon memo seen by the Associated Press news agency said the new unit will "develop messages" for the 24-hour news cycle and aim to "correct the record". A spokesman said the unit would monitor media such as weblogs and would also employ "surrogates", or top politicians or lobbyists who could be interviewed on TV and radio shows.'"
