Are you reffering to the HIGH QUALITY OF ABE, CBS, NBC, CNN, MSNBC, ET AL?????.

You have a low bar for quality.

I wonder how all the people who dropped Directv over them dropping Newsmax feel now

I feel great! Better service and WAAAAAY less expensive than DTV. The iPad app *actually* works as well!!!!

If I were a DTV customer and had dropped them for that, then I’d be feeling pretty good about it.

There is always one.

[srmanuel]

You and about a dozen more are happy.

“I wonder how all the people who dropped Directv over them dropping Newsmax feel now?”

That’s why Direct TV got them back. They lost a lot of customers.

There is always one.

...and this means?

Chris Ruddy (owner of Newsmax) stabbed us in the back a long time ago....

Some of us never forget.

Take it however you want.

“Newsmax will pay a fee for the first time.”

I assume you meant “will be paid a fee” ie DirecTV will pay for carrying Newsmax.

[Hazwaste]

I could not care less, as I don’t have DTV

[srmanuel]

I have DTV and I don’t care, I never watched Newsmax either, if you have DTV, I did watch the channel that replaced Newsmax, it wasn’t bad, Jesse Kelly has a morning show followed by Bill O’Reilly.
