That the program description might have been outsourced, as it were, is plausible. The omission of “Facing The Giants” from the TV Guide database is, on the other hand, suspect.

My TV Guide settings are specific to my location, east coast, and service provider, Dish Network....not that that’s germane, as Dish and TV Guide both list the showings on Monday the 17th. However, the search function for the TV Guide site should show results for “Facing The Giants” if it was, in fact, in its database...especially as it is in the date-specific program listing. How would you explain that a site word search would not show a result of a listing containing those words (neither “Facing” nor “Giants” are words commonly excluded from searches, and some of the results did contain those words), in light of the fact that the site’s program guide list the film showings, other than by deliberate human intervention?

I’ll look at my TV Guide listing on my cable box tonite and see what it displays.
