Not a lie -- surely they're giving the HD feed to anyone with whom they've completed successful negotiations for the rights to carry it. However, that doesn't seem to be any of the major cable or satellite operators. Obviously, we don't know exactly how much negotiation has been going on. It's possible there was a lot, but they couldn't get the deals done (they wanted too much money, nobody has spare channel space at this point, etc.)...and it's possible there has been very little up to this point and they're counting on an avalanche of furious calls to TV providers starting today to give them a better starting point for negotiations. -- Jim Ellwanger <[email protected]> <http://www.ellwanger.tv> --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ TV or Not TV ....
