I have always enjoyed Abby Martin who is always a straight shooter. Chris Hedges I only really know from his writing which is always a good read. So a great pleasure to see TeleSur doing this. Long may it live.
Martin is great, but Hedges is Divine. Anyway, as far as I know Hedges never had his own show anywhere - but was only heard when interviewed or read. Now, he has his own great show! Martin is amazing for her age and is back 'in town' after a long hiatus. I haven't even explored all of the other shows. FYI, everyone not familiar with TeleSur, it is basically a South American 'Al Jazeera' - news and views from another place and perspective. Most of the shows are in Spanish, but now they have a English division.
