What's up with that?

Cnn HD and CNN Int HD are not

Most nooz channels are not.

But Faux is.

How is that a bad thing? I can't even get myself to write anything that looks like the oxymoron that F news is.

3. If it means less subscribers/viewers, it could be a good thing?
I always figured FAUX was on everywhere because it was part of most basic cable packages and didn't cost extra like some cable news. If that equation changes, perhaps less people will be getting the TV kool aide.

8. Faux is still on basic. Just their HD chanel is premium.
We have one HD set that HD basic. No FauxHD.

Also no Travel ChannelHD (as but an example), but we get regular Travel Channel.

Its scwewy.

9. Dish is just the opposite.
I refused to pay for the top 120 package because Fux snooz is on it, but I have HD, and all of the sudden it showed up unscrabled in HD. Cavuto in HD.:scared:

10. I wonder if that varies with your location
Here in Portland, OR, it is in the basic HD package - not a premium. I had to go online to find that out because even though I can get Fox I have it blocked out of the channel lineup on my Tivo.
