JUNE 30, 2010 (Los Angeles, CA) — From the moment Cenk Uygur decided to broadcast the first progressive radio talk show — and Sirius Satellite Radio’s first original program — around the world, his desire to break boundaries was clear. 10 years and a quarter of a billion YouTube views later, his vision to turn “The Young Turks” talk show into a multi-media radio/podcast/live Internet “TV” show has proven worthwhile.

With 250,616,667 million total views and a June 2010 average of 600,000 views per day on YouTube alone, “The Young Turks” popularity highlights an audience hungry for a new approach to live news and discourse. Hosts Cenk Uygur and Ana Kasparian discuss politics, current events, sports and pop culture live weekdays from 6-9pm ET with guests ranging from Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi and President Jimmy Carter, to Rosario Dawson, Lou Dobbs, and Alan Greenspan.

The irreverent talk show can be seen live on “The Young Turks” website, with additional broadcasting on XM/Sirius Satellite Radio, podcast, and through the show’s YouTube and UStreampartner channels. In addition to “The Young Turks,” Uygur is a prominent blogger on The Huffington Post and Daily Kos.

Cenk Uygur — who will fill in for Dylan Ratigan next Tuesday and Wednesday as guest host of MSNBC’s “The Dylan Ratigan Show” — credits what he calls the “TYT Army” for the continued and expanding popularity in the show. “When you’re a network television show, you’re guaranteed millions of viewers,” explained Uygur. “Then you have to prove yourself after this gift. When you’re an online show, you’re guaranteed nothing. You start with zero viewers. We have now built up a quarter of a billion views for our online show, with no marketing budget and no existing infrastructure. That’s insane. That makes us by leaps and bounds more successful than any show that has ever been on television. Let them know, we’re coming.”

In 2009 the “TYT Army” launched a Facebook campaign to have Uygur considered for a position at MSNBC, drawing the attention of mainstream media outlets and ultimately, cable news’ top brass. The “TYT Army” has also drawn note from top websites and cable news producers who relay the increase in numbers received by the mere mention of “The Young Turks” or Uygur.

“The Young Turks” is a self-sustaining talk show, retaining its own content outside of major corporations. The program premiered on Sirius Satellite Radio in 2002 before transitioning to Air America Radio/XM Satellite Radio. In 2005 “The Young Turks” launched a first of its kind, daily live “TV” style format. In 2007, “The Young Turks” joined YouTube’s partnership program when it was introduced, and established an additional home in 2009 on UStream. Guests on the program include the top power-makers in the field of politics and entertainment, including: Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi, Reverend Jesse Jackson, director Michael Moore, former Presidential candidate Ralph Nader, Senator John Kerry, actor Richard Dreyfuss, General Wesley Clark, NBC’s Brian Williams, conservative commentator Mary Matalin, former President Jimmy Carter, Senator Harry Reid, Spiderman creator Stan Lee, professor Noam Chomsky, actor Adam Sandler, NFL superstar Warrick Dunn, the late Senator Edward Kennedy, and more.

Alex Jones websites were assaulted by a massive, organized and sustained attack today which is still ongoing as zombie computers around the world were used to launch a denial of service attack which is undoubtedly related to our ongoing efforts to expose the governments Cybersecurity agenda as the gargantuan threat to Internet freedom it represents.

It appears to be a Distributed Denial of Service attack, utilizing zombied (or hacked) computers all over the world to overwhelm our servers, disabling them from serving normal traffic, states our Infowars systems administrator.

As Wikipedia explains, a DoS attack consists of Saturating the target (victim) machine with external communications requests, such that it cannot respond to legitimate traffic, or responds so slowly as to be rendered effectively unavailable. In general terms, DoS attacks are implemented by either forcing the targeted computer(s) to reset, or consuming its resources so that it can no longer provide its intended service or obstructing the communication media between the intended users and the victim so that they can no longer communicate adequately.

This is precisely what happened to Prison Planet.tv and Infowars.net today, while flagship websites Infowars.com and Prison Planet.com have also come under attack but are still holding up at time of press.

The last such attack occurred around the time that we were exposing the swine flu scandal last year, but todays attack even dwarfs that in terms of scope and sustained assault.

The most likely source for the attack is obviously the inner sanctum of the military-industrial complex that we have been exposing for months as they rush through their Cybersecurity initiative which represents a massive threat to Internet freedom.

Over the last few years, the Pentagon has developed an offensive cyber capability against adversaries, including DoS attacks. In the Pentagons Information Operation Roadmap document, it is stated that the military must fight the Net. The Pentagon believes the internet needs to be dealt with as if it were an enemy weapons system.

We are now witnessing intensified efforts to attack and remove from the world wide web sites like Cryptome.org and others which pose a fundamental threat to the anti-free speech agenda of the elite.

It is at times like these that we really need your support to bolster our servers in order to fend off these kind of attacks, either by getting the DVDs or becoming a Prison Planet.tv member.

As is our habitual response, every time we are attacked we only grow stronger by beefing our servers and launching another website which is exactly what will happen tomorrow with the birth of the Real Coffee Party initiative.

The enemies of freedom will be defeated in their continual attempt to silence free speech and their attacks will only make us close ranks and become stronger in the fight against the new world order.

From HappyMappy.com Perhaps the most photographed site on the Blue Ridge Parkway, Mabry Mill was a community gathering place in the early decades of the 1900s and is a gathering place for Parkway visitors today. A restored gristmill, sawmill, wood working shop, and blacksmith shop. Traditional rural skills such as basket weaving, chair caneing, spinning and weaving are demonstrated on a regular basis during the visitor season. Apple butter on weekends in October and music and dancing each Sunday afternoon during the summer and fall make Mabry Mill one of many delightful Parkway experiences. Located at Milepost 176 on the Blue Ridge Parkway.
