Current TV changed to Al Jazeera America at 3 p.m., Aug., 20. "Al Jazeera English" will no longer air on WGXC, because of the corporate change. Al Jazeera America airs on Ch. 173 of Mid-Hudson Cable. Also, from "Free Speech Radio News": "Press freedom advocates are raising concerns after law enforcement in the UK targeted The Guardian for its coverage of mass government surveillance. Watchdogs and journalists say the detention of reporter Glenn Greenwald’s partner under a terrorism law and forcing the newspaper to destroy hard drives containing the files leaked by Edward Snowden, are a form of intimidation. FSRN’s Alice Ollstein reports."
