Speaking of frink'n clueless, I recall on the big ramp up for pay tv/cable tv, it was all billed as "Commercial free" content and on and on.
When they finally swindled people to pay for TV and then pay to watch their commercials which have already been paid for...That's wasn't enough to they forced all the sucker to buy into these "bundle plans" essentially forcing people to pay for things they neither want nor need.
No-one is forced to buy cable TV. If you don't like it, cancel! Or better yet, don't sign up in the first place.
