Fucking COMCAST. [View all]

They just pushed my favorite channel, TruTV, to the next highest price tier.

I thought that's what happened when the channel "went dark" yesterday. It now says "Not Authorized."

So I called and they have it in their recorded message: "TruTV viewers: In order to provide a balance between quality programming and affordable pricing, TruTV has been moved to the next highest price tier."

I have "expanded basic" and other than MSNBC, TruTV is about the only channel I watch. Or "watched." BITE me, Comcast.
