they couldnt make this stuff up! so Fox is a privately owned company; it didnt take any tarp money. it has a contract with time warner that runs out, it expires. they think their content is valuable so they ask for more money to renew the contract. any crime so far? time warner demogogues it to their customers suggesting that a crime has been committed and that the price increase will be passed on to time warner customers. if the price of wheat goes up do the bread manufacturers take out full page adds decrying farmers and telling their customers that they are passing this on to them?
then senator kerry, you know the one with the jaw like jay leno, gets into the act and says in essence that a private company does not have the right to not renew a contract with another private company and threatens to sic the fcc on fox! wow. Fox is not the post office, a utility company, a public school. hell, they are on obamas enemies list!
now the anti-climax; time warner and fox cut a last minutes deal but why the drama and why government intervention. are we living in venezuela?
