I do stream and I stream news from around the world. I find news that would never be covered by MSM here. It all began when I found SKY news (admittedly somewhat conservative, but in a UK way) during the first Ukraine stand off over a freezing winter in Kiev in 2014 called the Revolution of Dignity. They also cover events in Africa which would NEVER be included in the eyewitless news here. I have found dozens of news sits around the globe and the little computer translates...... I also find tons of current event things on YouTube, like Glenn Kirschner and I'm fairly well informed about local events as I belong to a few organizations that advocate for social justice, housing justice, food justice anti poverty issues and racial equity. I live in Oakland Calif. so there is a lot to learn that would rarely be found on TV. I find that I in no way miss the vapid TV shows that fill the hours of the evening, so I just stream away.
