are you willing to cancel your Comcast cable if Keith Olbermann does not come back ? |
|
I think I am. But I can not be the only one.

No Comcast here and no MSNBC anymore either. As to who is the blame, don't care, they took KO away and I refuse to watch and give them the numbers. Luckily I am a Nelson household and v-chip works well.

6. We don't have Comcast so I can't cancel it, but I will not |
|
stop watching Rachel, Lawrence & ed. I've read that Keith has been sending signals that he was looking for a new gig for some time and he apparently had a rocky road with MSNBC's mgmt for some time. Keith will be back somewhere and I have no doubt about that. I just hope our gang of hree still stays with MSNBC. We liberals need their voices.

5. We have Time Warner, but I would be willing to cancel |
|
if I can get everyone else here to agree. We've done it before. I couldn't stand to watch Bush eg, and just cancelled cable as I couldn't get to any channel without risking seeing his lying face even for a second. The only thing I missed was C-Span. Movies I can see on the computer and most of the news I want I can get online also.
We have cable now, I thought it was safe to go back after Bush left, but I watch it less and less.
Regardless of whether we cancel the whole thing, I won't be watching MSNBC AT ALL. That will not be hard without Keith's show.

7. First of all, KO won't be back... |
|
This wasn't like when he got suspended. This time, a buyout of his contract was negotiated -- in other words, it's over, with each side probably glad to be rid of the other.
As to canceling Comcast...I'm going to talk to DISHNetwork on Monday. That's the only real option for me -- DirecTV would just mean jumping from Comcast to NewsCorp.

11. I canceled ComCast 2 years ago and they still billed me |
|
until I closed my banking account, I called, wrote letters ...hell I didn't even live there and they still billed me.
If you can get rid of those guys on your trade of goods and find a replacement if you can... I know its hard to find a competitor when they have a monopoly in your area

This may be a good thing in the long run. Keith won't be away from broadcasting for long and the next evolution may be better than the last.

21. I don't have Comcast cable. But I'm willing to cancel Time Warner. |

The basic cable package is NOTHING BUT GARBAGE!
It's a waste of money.
