"But when you completely dive into this, you realize we're helping the industry.'' If nothing else, Sling has media titans in its corner. Its financial backers include moguls John Malone and Charlie Ergen, who respectively run Liberty Media Corp., the Colorado-based international media and cable company with cable operations around Europe, and Echostar, the second largest satellite-television provider in the U.S. Along with Goldman Sachs, they led a $46.6 million Sling...

We look back to the first demonstrator. He seems unconscious, but the police are still beating him. A woman on the terrace of her house three floors directly above screams and throws a pail of water over them. The police respond by picking up bricks from the ground and throwing them through...
