Comments

  1. Regarding Ted Cruz, his little political stunt cost the U.S. economy tens or hundreds of millions of dollars. As long as he’s a leading republican, never stop repeating this. It just shows how destructive he can be to the country for his own gain.

    1. If a hacker from North Korea, managed to shut down the US goverment just for a day, and he got caught – NSA would put him behind bars for the rest of his life.
      How come people don´t see Ted Cruz as an enemy fo the state ?

  3. I must say, it is frustrating, to say the least, to wait 4 days for the next fix of TYT only to be DENIED! I agree with many others here when they suggest you check your links before leaving work for the day. You would think that this is a “No Brainer”! If your show wasn’t so damned good, I wouldn’t take the time to type out a bitch about the link not working.

    1. shut the fuck up. Cenk did an incredibly powerful story on gun rights and regulations, and went on to do an extended first hour. And all you can do is complain that it came out a few hours late on the day before new years eve. Most shows havent put out any content for the last few weeks.

      1. igittigit, why do you have to behave like a right winger & shut some one down with hostility. Cant you understand ? HE/SHE LOVES THE SHOW and is expressing frustration at not being able to get the daily tyt fix on time. How do you find it so easy to abuse some one who is ON YOUR SIDE ??? You are right to point out the hard work of cenk and tyt in making shows at a time when most of the world is letting their hair down and heading for ibiza (metaphorically, i cant actually afford that malarkey+ im bald) -but its always necessary for a fan to be able to complain without being shoved to the ground by another fan (metaphorically) !- thats what keeps rebel headquarters real !

    1. I want to add – these goof-ups are never commented on by TYT; I guess TYT crosses its fingers hoping it won’t happen again – until it does.

    1. what save ? the technical issues will destroy tyt, they need to take this more seriously. i can access tyt 50% at best, this is a big problem

      1. they do it for us, three days off and no technical problems for the members, just wouldn’t be TYT, would it?

    2. i have sam seder, ring of fire and thom hartman, those sites are rock solid, tyt works at best 50% of the time, wtf

    3. the “save” is not working for me, nevertheless i appreciate the link, tyt really needs to get these issues figured out, other sites don’t have these problems

      1. That works, thanks. Looks like they accidentally appended a 1 to the end of the URL after the A and before the .m4v.

        1. seriously guys! just click the link on your iPad or another device and see if it actually works! it will take 5 minutes, tops. worth it.

      2. Thanks a lot, made my morning Lucky Charms more magically delicious. instead of partially delicious and partially full of rage.

      3. Thanks hXcHector! BTW: nice blog, the pets page put a smile on my face, needed it, had to put my old dog down on Xmas eve :(
