Free Speech TV covers our movement. FSTV is available on Dish Network and a few
cable systems. FSTV is currently NOT available on DirecTV.
The Free Speech TV website says (in part):
"Free Speech TV provides a nationwide platform for voices traditionally absent
from mainstream media. Working with activists and artists, FSTV uses television to
expose social and environmental injustices - to help build community, to teach
tolerance, to encourage personal creativity and stand for non-violent social
action."
I have contacted DirecTV about carrying Free Speech TV, and received this
response:
"Thank you for your inquiry concerning Free Speech TV. We are always looking for
ways to enhance our services. Your suggestions are valuable and we use them to
judge interest in various programming sources. In fact, we have added channels as
a result of viewer feedback.
"We have forwarded your comments to our programming department. Please continue to
visit our web site at DIRECTV.com for the latest news and information about our
services.
