No extension here. Fox just disappeared from Metrocast Cablevision in New Hampshire.

Let TV go dark.

All FOX channels are on DIRECTV plus NFL Channel.
I dropped TW 20 years ago and have never been happier.

3 hour extension?

woohoo! 3 whole hours.

If Time Warner cuts some of Fox's commercials and plays it's own, then Fox is due money IMO.
If Fox has THEIR sponsor's commercials being carried by Time Warner, then their is no issue, because all Time Warner would be doing is increasing the sponsor's coverage.

Either Fox or Time Warner are full of cr@p.
The people being passed on more costs of cable would be also cr@p.

I don't know of Time Warner playing their own commercials over Fox's on cable. Does that happen? If not Fox is the one full of cr@p here.

HTime Warner in TX may lose Fox, that means no Spurs games on Fox Sports Network Southwest, and there will be lots of people switching from Time Warner. If it means no Jack Bauer on “24”, then I guess nobody will keep Time Warner.

No impact here yet in WNY, but we’ll see....

I could care less if they re-sign for FOX En Espanol — just give me more free clear QAM (HD) channels.

I just lost the cooking and selling houses channels. I enjoyed them both. The only channels left that I like are Fox News and the Catholic channel, the latter runs a few hrs in the morning (which I don’t get to watch anyway) and then evening hrs. I’m thinking of canceling as I’m paying almost $70/mo.

0130 Friday here in the DFW area. Fox broadcast station is still on. .......TW will be in a world of hurt if they don’t negotiate with Fox to keep airing that broadcast channel, as a Fox withdrawal would wipe out the Sugar Bowl this afternoon, the Cotton Bowl Saturday and the Eagles vs. Cowboys game Sunday afternoon.

Fox is the culprit in this game. Most of the other re-broadcasting firms only pay Fox around 25-30 cents per subscriber. Fox is wanting TW to pay $1 per subscriber, which is 3 to 4 times as much as the others.

Local ambulance chaser requested an injunction to force Fox to air the Sugar Bowl. It was denied.

According to TWC’s site, “rolloverorgettough,” the following are “being held hostage” (at least in my zip-code)

* Food Network
* Fox Reality Channel
* Fox Soccer Channel
* Fox Sports Net Midwest
* Fox Sports World Espanol
* Fuel
* FX
* Great American Country
* Speed Channel

I suspect that all the non-Fox channels are negotiating with TWC as well.

They did announce an extension for FOX & Great American Country. I can’t say anything about the others, since I don’t subscribe (except FoodTV, but I haven’t had a chance to check yet).
