No joke, I'm tuned into CNN; the guide says it's CNN, but the broadcast is FAUX.

I'm in Phoenix with DirecTV satellite.

WTF? :wtf:

2. Okay, this is really fucking bizarre.
I put on what is normally CNN here (channel 26) and it's FAUX. I put on what should be FAUX (channel 25) and it's CNN.

:wtf:

6. No, just regular cable. No cable box or anything.
The basement home theatre has iO digital cable, but the rest of the house just has regular cable.
