(30,252 posts)1. Better Time-Warner than Comcast, though
Hate to say it, but it looks like none of the cable providers have clean hands anymore.

I'm dropping their tv service for good this summer, though I might have to keep internet. We only get two options here, T-W and ATT, and I really hate ATT worse.
Not giving up my phone, internet or tv.

(2,949 posts)4. And an opinion from Daily Kos
Daily Kos is upset about Current TV being sold to Al-jazeera. Sez the company was never properly run, maybe so, but many here watched it even after Olberman left. Al-jazeera will provide us with a more worldly view of goings on then we get from any provider in the U.S. So i continue in my boycott of Time-Warner.
