Tapper is good. He recently reported the CIA was on the ground during Benghazi.

"some big Hollywood names are on board in giving some money" at end of segment.

Vince Vaughn?

Great segment, nothing else to add really, though I am curious as to what the big Hollywood names are... Like jct74, Im guessing Vince Vaughn is one of them

I could pick this clip apart. From RP's description of the channel and CNN's interpretation of it ($9.95 a month for a steady stream of his libertarian views), to Darrell West's comments, to the insinuation that Paul is circumventing msm because didnt get "enough attention" during his last two campaigns, then equating him to other msm shills like Beck and Palin.

All in all I cant really complain though, its decent coverage and its not the worst thing Ive seen from CNN,,, by far.

$9.95 per month...

Hmmm...

 

[Tod]

200,000 subscribers at $120/year = $24,000,000 per year.

Wonder what his costs are?

whats it matter?

Then there is what his costs could be...

I remember seeing the studio equip from a cooking show that went off air for sale on E-Bay once. 2 mock-pro camera's on dollies, all the cabling, all the lights, audio gear and a simple video mixer all for ~25-30K. Yes, broadcast quality.

What do you think Adam or Schiff spent on their "studio's"? What about the Young Turks?

I also have to wonder why he's streaming. That kind of bandwidth gets expensive, while YouTube is free and will even pay you ad revenue.

Brookings institute asserts he's had an effect on 'same-sex marriage and marijuana'. He didn't want same-sex marriage,he wanted government out of social arrangements.

I am sure the cost of the bandwidth is more than covered in the monthly subscription cost. If you look at other subscription websites with streaming content the $10/mo price point is right in there.

One of the things about subscription based sites like this is that the cost per average subscriber drops over time. Reason being is that when someone is a new subscriber, they are watching everything they have time to watch and consuming a lot of bandwidth, but eventually people stop watching every day, and then maybe only one or two videos a week, then they forget about it altogether, then a couple months go by and they haven't used the site at all and wonder why they are still paying for it. Those last couple of months are golden for the site, because they got the subscription fee, but there was no cost.
