TimeWarner breaks contract with Moore to show Fahrenheit 9-11 !!!
Edited on Sat Oct-16-04 04:59 PM by SoCalDemocrat
Let the boycotts continue! Time Warner has broken their agreement to allow F 9-11 show on InDemand. I'm considering cancelling my digital box which is used to order InDemand service.

1. Wouldn't not ordering PPV
be a better boycott than canceling your cable company's (ie, not InDemand's) cable service?

3. no
InDemand is owned by TimeWarner. If I send back the DigitalBox they no longer make money off of me each month for having it, plus they get no InDemand orders from me. It makes a statement to send it back.


" The New York-based iN DEMAND, owned by the Time Warner, Cox and Comcast cable companies, makes pay-per-view programming available in 28 million homes, or about one-quarter of the nation's homes with television. "

2. The BFEE Made Them An Offer They Could Not Refuse
In Demand's CEO may have found a severed horse head on his bed
when he woke up that morning.

4. The Saudis own a big chunk of AOL/TimeWarner. Of course they won't show it
because they WANT Bush to be in office to continue the cover up of their aid to the terrorists around the world. It's all business to them and BushInc.
