You have GOT to get FOX. First, raise hell with the cable company. That way you can help others get it as well. But in any event, get hubby to splash for the dish. It costs no more than cable (less where I live), has a better picture and sound, and a better array of channels--especially FOX. One night of O'Reilly and you'll be glad you got it.
I do raise hell with my cable company. (It's a bit harder to raise hell with my hubby who thinks that I will spend October through early June watching hockey games day and night. He's right. I would.)
Here in Northern California, I have AT & T cable. Someone told me that they have a stake in TimeWarner and that's why they won't run FOX NEWS. Depending on the seriousness of the news cycle, (like the beginning of a war, major terrorist attacks and cop car chases) I do get a FOX NEWS feed through the local San Francisco FOX channel. It is always temporary, because the SF FOX channel eventually goes back to its regular programming of X-file reruns, reality shows and kiddie cartoons. Sigh.
