Did you ever consider that one of the reasons that cable rates are so high
is because the company was providing a local news service that didn't make
money?  Or that rates were high because the prior ownership had more people
on the payroll than necessary?  It seems to me that you are trying to have
it both ways by complaining about rates and corporate cost cutting.
