What's going on with these TV politics? Directv has started to posted some news on their channels that Viacom is asking their customers to pay more for their channels. They own mostly all the major networks like MTV, BET, Tvland, Nick, etc. Both these companies are trying to get viewers to call in for their sides. If you have Directv, you might be out of quite a few channels today.
C'mon Directv and Viacom

We've already been out of DirecTV's MEtv channel (49) for some 2 months. That's the channel that shows The Honeymooners, The Twilight Zone, Bob Newhart, Naked City, Columbo, Phil Silvers. It also shows others that I don't watch.
A notice on the screen says:
"NO NEED TO CALL US. Service will be restored as soon as technical difficulties are resolved. Please check this channel periodically for status. SORRY FOR THE INTERRUPTION."
"technical difficulties"? Yeah -- right. My son is on Camden's local cable provider and has had no interruption. My golfing buddy is on DISH -- no problem there.
