Hey Time-Warner, I want my C-SPAN

By Thomas M. Sipos / Enter Stage Right
Shame on Time-Warner Cable. Upon buying Adelphia Cable in Santa Monica, Calif. early this year, it dropped C-SPAN 2 from basic tier channels and replaced it with ... a blank screen. Sure, Time-Warner is a private company. And though cable systems have long lobbied government for the power to violate others' property rights (such as by forcing landlords and property owners to grant easements inside their buildings and across their lands), I suppose Time-Warner has a right to drop C-SPAN 2 from basic tier. But that doesn't mean I have to like it. Why should you care? Because most "news" outlets are partisan and dummied-down. Full story...
