So, you don't watch tv! Whoopee!
To those of us who "still watch television", these alerts are a pain!
If you don't mind, I am pointing out the intrusion of the interruption. This is not a commentary on whether or not some smart#* watches television or not!
We pay way too much, for sure. But, that is another story. This is not about Comcast, it is about the emergency alert agency - it is about the uninvited and unnecessary intrusion.
We have a weather alert radio. If severe weather is headed our way, we will know it. We also get alerts on every tv channel, so why is it necessary to change over to a specific channel and totally incapacitate my tv and remote?
Winston, you are committing a thought crime here. Obamatelevision knows and is on their way. Did you also foul up on the Party’s ten minutes of hate Mr. Zimmerman? You probably did. :(
ditto
I have DirectTV and, to date, I haven’t had that problem. I’m sure it will happen at some point in time. But I do have Netflix streaming, and I love having an alternative way to watch TV. I cut back my DirectTV package to a lower priced one and I haven’t missed any of the channels I no longer receive.
Call and complain.
Jeopardy viewers have a LOT of clout!
Just saying, if people quit buying their product, they’d mend their ways.
Same with the airlines and those lice they keep around — the TSA.
