Current TV




The only news channel that does an intelligent job of reaching to younger audiences. Current TV is just like JPG Magazine in that they have created a peer-to-peer network, and instead of photographs, Current uses news and information. The majority of shows on Current are created by its viewers, viewer created content (VC2), giving a point of view that is always new and exciting.

One of Current's own shows, Info Mania, a close resemblance to The Soup in that it talks about recent pop-culture and media, is quite entertaining, especially their tech report. Also check out Vanguard, Current's intense and intrepid journalism team that reports on situations, that most would stray away from. The clip above is for their upcoming Vanguard episode, "The Beach of Death." Looks pretty powerful, looking forward to seeing it. Enjoy
