Filibuster on Wilshire

TurksHere's one more thing you can't do on regular radio but can on pay radio. The Young Turks, which airs from here on Sirius Satellite Radio with hosts Cenk Uygur, Ben Mankiewicz and Jill Pike, plans to go on the air at 3 pm and stay on until Senate Democrats announce a filibuster of Samuel A. Alito's nomination to the Supreme Court. Not exactly on the air, but they will stream live video and keep feeding the iTunes podcast "NO MATTER HOW LONG IT TAKES," says the publicist email. The Turks call their program "the first nationwide liberal talk show and first live, daily internet TV show...a funny, smart, irreverent and entertaining look at politics, sex, news, pop culture, current affairs and personal stories."
