I was thinking about switching to Dish TV anyway, now would be about as good a time as any I suppose.

University of California TV. These two are some of the most progressive on television. LinkTV is on there also so you don't lose that if you go to DISH. We don't get the Al Gore channel yet, but they're always adding stuff.
On edit FSTV = FreeSpeech TV. some very good, some very bad.

5. DirecTV did not remove PBSU - Shrub did...
cut their funding. so this one isn't DTV's fault.

DTV does carry CURRENT, DISH does not.
