Those are basically the only three channels I watch. I find it hard to belive they would do that to NYC customers, its such a huge market, there will be many complaints. |

Time Warner has been pulling this stunt with local TV stations and broadcast groups lately. I was wondering when they were going to start hitting the major cable outlets. The ultimate answer is for the folks with Time Warner cable to cancel their subscriptions. If enough people canceled, TW would get the message. In ten years we'll look back on this moment, laugh nervously, and quickly change the subject. |

PhantomLordNYC User ID: 516380 United States 12/31/2008 12:14 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | I guess it's a good thing I don't have Time Warner. Personally I could do with out some of those channels. I think out of all of them the only ones I was consistently are VH1 Classic, Comedy Central, and Spike TV. If I had a choice I would drop MTV, MTV2, and a couple others for channels like RFD, Sundance, and IFC. |

I urge anybody to quit tv for at least a couple months, do stuff, read books, play outside MEET the actual people on your facebook or myspace....then go back to tv, THEN you will truely understand sheeple |
