Listen to free podcasts, buy DVDs while you still can, read books, write your own stories and share, and go into nature more. Cutting our free TV may be the blessing we need to unplug from the corrupt matrix.

CEO of Disney, Bob Igor spoke with CNBC's David Faber: At the top of the list is assessing the traditional TV business, Iger said. Disney owns a portfolio of TV networks, from broadcast station ABC to cable TV channels like ESPN. Disney is going to be “expansive” in its thinking about the...

Name a movie you couldn't get into that everyone else likes.
