1. Apparently they've moved MSNBC off the basic cable line-up
in a bunch of markets.. God forbid that people should get information vital to being an informed citizen without paying through the nose for it.

3. Annabanana is right
Comcast has been moving MSNBC (but not Fox News, CNN or the Dead Blonde Girl Channel) to a premium tier.

7. I had to upgrade to a premium package
Edited on Wed Oct-01-08 07:35 PM by erinlough
to get MSNBC. In fact it is the only reason I went to the premium package with Comcast. If I weren't bundled with cable and phone I would have cancelled. On the other hand, it means that MSNBC must be a station that is desirable enough to sell premium packages so that's something.
