I used to think of Discovery, The Learning Channel, and National Geographic as educational - but that ceased a number of years ago, when they realized there was no money to be made from well-researched intelligent programming. On the few occasions they run anything fact-based, it usually consists of 15 minutes of actual information transformed into two hours of commercials and endless repetition of the content, all with an overly dramatic voice over. I actually think Michael Jackson's autopsy would fit quite well with the rest of their output.
