Al Jazeera: 'The Stream- Redefining Happiness?'


Source:Al Jazeera- on sale in America.

"We look at altering the cycle of consumerism." 

From Al Jazeera 

"Al Jazeera (Arabic: الجزيرة, romanized: al-jazīrah, IPA: [æl (d)ʒæˈziːrɐ], literally "The Peninsula", referring to the Qatar Peninsula in context)[3] is the state-owned Arabic-language international radio broadcaster of Qatar. It is based in Doha and operated by the media conglomerate Al Jazeera Media Network. The flagship of the network, its station identification, is Al Jazeera.

The patent holding is a "private foundation for public benefit" under Qatari law.[4] Under this organizational structure, the parent receives funding from the government of Qatar but maintains its editorial independence.[5][6] In June 2017, the Saudi, Emirati, Bahraini, and Egyptian governments insisted on the closure of the entire conglomerate as one of thirteen demands made to the Government of Qatar during the Qatar diplomatic crisis.[citation needed] The channel has been criticised by some organisations as well as nations such as Saudi Arabia for being "Qatari propaganda."

Let me guess: the leftist answer to materialism, is raising taxes on everyone, so we would have less money to be materialistic. Leftists always have an excuse to raise taxes on everyone.

On Demand Entertainment: 'Argo Cast Spill The Beans On Ben Affleck As a Boss'


Source:On Demand Entertainment- talking to actor/director Ben Affleck.

"At the premiere of Argo at the London Film Festival, Bryan Cranston and John Goodman dish the dirt on what director Ben Affleck is like as a boss. Report by Louise Hulland." 

From On Demand Entertainment

The 1979 Iranian Hostage is something that I've very interested in and lived through as someone who was 3-4 years old at the time. So I would be very disappointed if this movie isn't very good. 

I haven't seen Argo yet, so I can't really say anything about it. I've seen documentaries about the true story and how some of the Western hostages were able to escape early pre-1981 when most of the Western hostages were freed, but I don't know much about the movie. So I don't feel comfortable about trying to go into detail about it.
