I prefer my local weather folks (WSET in Lynchburg) to the Weather Channel. WSET is more accurate.

Another corporation looking for a bail-out or favor from the all-powerful government.

Its what our progressive, crony-capitalist system is all about.

then use the internet- there are other sites that can be accessed. directtv and the weatherchannel should not doing this, seems like once a year some channel is always threatened to be let go on at least one satellite or cable provider.

Who needs thee Weather Channel? Bring back the 24-hour color radar feed with the NOAA voiceover guy who sounds like he’s reading the South Plains ag report. That guy was more useful than all of the blow-dried personalities of questionable sexual orientation over at TWC.

So the “Weather Channel” is the only place to get weather information? Who knew. We must correct this now! BTW, whatever happened to the National Weather Service FNA the Weather Bureau? Were they victims of the sequester?

The Weather Channel used to be good with 24 hour weather. Now it is an entertainment arm of NBC often with too much entertainment, and weather only in between the documentary shows.

The same shows are on other channels like Discovery, Nat geo, History, ect.

When I want weather, I WANT WEATHER! And I don’t want to wait till the break between shows.

What kind of idiot gives so much as a nickel to DirecTV?

Do people like surrendering their money to the democrat party of their own free will? Because that's what they are doing by paying for that crap called "DirecTV."

I remember when the Weather Chanel had credibility. They gave actual weather information. Yesterdays high temp, low, and forecast going forward.

Now it is about naming winter storms, showing coast guard helicopters and tide impacts.

If it cost me one penny a month to have it on my Direct service, I vote no.

How can you do without them .... remember they brought you the feared “Polar Vortex”. Where would you have been without that ... mired in a outdated “Artic Front”, “Canadian Express”, “Cold Spell”, etc.? Panic, panic, we’re all gonna die if the Weather Channel goes off the air!!!!!!!

The Weather Channel hardly ever shows any weather. They always have stupid shows on. And when they DO show weather, it is almost always for somewhere else interesting.

If i want weather from my TV, I switch to the local weather channel. Usually I use the computer.
