NY FIOS warning: NO MSNBC.
My mom in Queens had FIOS installed today. Then she looked at the listings. No MSNBC. No Olbermann. They have it this week for the Olympics. Next week? Nada. She made them uninstall it.

"For one channel?"

"Yes. For me that's a dealbreaker."

Uninstalling ain't easy btw. Took 2-1/2 hours on the telephone to get everything. But Direct TV isn't going to charge her for the reinstallation.

1. I thought about going to FIOS
But I won't if it doesn't have MSNBC. Not going to happen.
