Sling TV to carry new Viceland network http://finance.yahoo.com/news/sling-tv-carry-viceland-network-170352865.html
Viceland, Vice’s upcoming 24-hour, new-age news network, is aimed at a younger, more progressive demographic than traditional news outlets. Problem is, that’s the same crowd that is likely to cut the cord and eschew traditional, bundled cable. Enter the upstart, Old TV-trolling Sling TV.Since the A&E network umbrella is turning History Channel off-shoot H2 into Viceland, and Sling TV already carries H2, it would make sense for them to continue to carry it under the new banner — and carry it, they will. Yesterday, the Internet-based, live-streaming TV service told GigaOm that, when the new channel launches, it will be available on Sling TV.The company couldn’t provide an exact date, but indicated that it would get the network “at the same time as other distributors.”Though not quite a la carte, Sling TV provides a more limited, far-cheaper option when compared with traditional TV. The company’s packages start at $20/month sans contract and include a targeted selection of 20+ popular channels (ESPN, A&E, History, TNT, and others). For an additional monthly fee, subscribers can add HBO and other extras.
 
Good God. They're replacing H2 with something like this? http://www.vice.com/en_us

On their home page at the moment, they discuss spontaneous human combustion with a paranormal researcher and advise how to save money when you're young, dumb, and broke. Injection rooms? :eek: Blowjob anxiety?

I didn't know they're turning off H2! That's my favorite channel since they actually play history related material unlike History channel which is getting to be more like reality tv with axe men and pawn stars and ice road trucker ect.
