message: According to Current's website, all of Comcast has CurrentTV on channel 107. I was wondering if it should be added under the lineup like DishTV and SKY do, instead of falling under "See local listings". --Takeru27 (talk) 16:43, 26 March 2009 (UTC)

message: This rewrite and some of it's details read like it came from someone inside Current's marketing dept.  NPOV tag added.  Details listed in rewrite section. Silent.reprobate (talk) 21:10, 18 February 2008 (UTC)
thread_title: NPOV

message: Full disclosure -- My name is Mario Anima, and I'm the director for online community on Current.com. I have some suggestions, but I thought it would be best to offer them here first to avoid NPOV concerns in the actual entry. Some of the info in entry is a little stale, so I thought it best to point out some examples, and offer some resources.
A couple of things to note for the history section. First was the October 15th, 2007 relaunch as Current.com. The new beta site featured a redesigned homepage with the ability to view content aired on TV, and to contribute news stories, videos, blog posts, and other media stories from all over the web. Also, community members vote on and discuss these submissions, which increased chances for the items to be featured by our online programmers on the homepage.
Of course, another missing aspect that made some waves was the announcement of intent to file for IPO. 
The Current.com homepage underwent further revisions with the launch of Current:News on April 2nd, 2008. This included yet another revision to the homepage, but more importantly it added to the community voting aspect on the site in support of Current:News -- a collaborative newscast that airs on Current TV at the top of every hour. Here's how it works, community votes and other activity on submitted items translate into popularity based on some algorithmic mojo. Popularity ultimately influences what shows up in the popular section on the homepage. Popular items vie for the next available slot in Current:News (the modules at the top of the page), and the story occupying the top spot in the popular feed when the countdown timer runs down wins fame, fortune, and glory...in an upcoming episode of Current:News. Once the next story is picked, our Current:News team reviews the selected items and discussions taking place on each one, and they cut together a new episode of Current:News to air at the top of the hour. The title of each item, alongside the original contributor and editorially selected comments from the accompanying discussion are highlighted in each Current:News pod.
So far, the robotic voice used in Current:News pods has had a somewhat polarizing impact on some community members. Another change was the airing of Current:News at the top of every hour, a spot formerly held by infoMania. Instead, infoMania has moved into a new time slot and is now a full half-hour show.
Some structural stuff: Would it be better to have a separate section for TV vs. Current.com? Maybe not, your call. Another thing, we do have some pretty popular pods on Current TV, so perhaps a section dedicated to our in-house productions? Here are some links to our more popular shows:
infoMania -- snarky take on recent web-related news. Includes a segment called Viral Video Film School, which is pretty popular.
SuperNews! -- an animated political satire series
Daily Fix -- music news 
Vanguard -- investigative international journalism
Let me know what you think, and please let me know if there is a better way to do this. I really don't want to cause a stir here.

message: I am interested in editing this entry.  I would like to have a week to do research the subject.  I would appreciate if the article is not deleted in the coming weeks.  I suspect that this network may be involved with potentially interesting/significant activities.  Thanks in advance. Fastplanet 10:52, 12 February 2007 (UTC)
thread_title: rewrite

message: If you look at all the other channels or networks on Wikipedia, they all explain in the beginning what type of network they are. News, sports, etc., but this one only discusses business information which is useless to most people trying to figure out what it is. MagnoliaSouth (talk) 17:36, 24 September 2011 (UTC)

thread_title:  Closure 

message: There is no discussion of ratings or homes reached, except a vague and un-sourced that was in 2005 history section which I removed (didn't know if it was indeed "current") or any other discussion of its reception, impact or criticism.  Current TV has had more impact -- because of an ex-VP's involvement -- then the numbers should merit.  There needs to be some sub-section on that impact.  --Bruce Hall (talk) 05:33, 8 September 2012 (UTC)
