Dish Network and K.a.t.u.

Dish Network and KATU(the local ABC affiliate out of Portland)are in a dispute and due to that dispute all Dish Network customers in that broadcast area(including your's truly)are without ABC programming. I think it's a load of shit because Scrubs and King of the Hill are now going to be on ABC and I'll miss them. Also, Lost is on ABC. I'm one of those people addicted. Now I have to get the streaming feed from ABC. Over here on the coast if you want TV you have to either have Cable or Satellite or get a shitty picture from an antennae. I have DISH because first it's offered thru my phone company in a bundle with Internet and phone service. Also Charter, the cable provider in the area, is screwing their customers and losing the NBC affiliate. DIRECTV is another option but I'm locked into DISH for another year and a half. I wish KATU would learn they will lose alot of advertisers by screwing DISH.
'nuff said.

One good thing about ABC, is most of their programs you can watch on the net. Past episodes and whatever. Here, we can't afford cable. We get only one channel and it's "12 ABC". Now we have the new digital box, so it's really 3 channels. Actually.. I find I can get most everything on the internet I want. Radio, TV alot. So I don't miss TV. Plus I wouldn't be able to watch if I wanted. Too many kids here always, and playing "Wii" and "Playstation 3" or whatever. Hope however, things work out what's best for "you" in your area"..,

Time Waener couldn't settle a dispute with Fox las authun and we got screwed out of the World Series. So I deducted some money from my payment and attached a letter to the check declaring why. They tacked on five dollars to my next bill, so I deducted that and attached another letter. If they charge me another five bucks I am switching to AT & T because I am out of contract with Time Warner now. Screw them.
