I Want My Viacom!
In an insane rate dispute, the DISH satellite network has pulled all Viacom stations from their distribution. This includes cable networks MTV, VH1, Nickelodeon, Comedy Central and BET, in addition to 16 local CBS affiliates in top-ranking markets like New York, Los Angeles and Chicago.
Thankfully, I'm a Time Warner subscriber and don't have to worry about this. But come 'on!! I feel for these 9 million DISH network subscribers. What's the purpose of cable without Viacom? Everyone needs music videos...Rocket Power...BET bling.
This is just a typical example of corporate bullshit winning over consumer needs.
