And was told (testily) by the tech fellow that all the channels are bundled and I don't get to pick and choose the stations. He said ALL cable systems run this way. I believe Fox gets $7 per person per month. That's a shit ton of money. No wonder they don't care if all of their advertisers run away.

I need to bump it up the chain of command.

I see them here, but not on any commercials on our satellite. The local channels don't show them either. (Greenville-Asheville tv market)

That the customer service guy answered testily is a sign more an more people don't want to pay for hundreds of channels just to watch 14 of them.

Keep up the pressure.

that they needed to put this shit on TV. It does no good here online because the people that need to see it won't. It needs to be on Fox, OANN and whatever the other shitty one is.

They don't even watch those stations unless they are more than somewhat bias.
