I recently purchased TV and Internet service through my current provider Timer Warner Cable. Not even a month through service and they have shut off my local KCAL 9 channel in a dispute they have with CBS. I had a variety of different cable and satellite providers to choose from when I moved last month in July but I chose Time Warner Cable because of their advertisements claiming they are the better choice of the providers because of their sports and movies. Me being a lover of the Dodgers, football, and lakers it made sense. Now I am sitting here watching a black screen that says on the channel guide "Dodgers Vs. Cardinals". Its outrageous to think that my cable provider who gladly accepts my 105$ monthly bill also gladly will use me as leverage in their dispute with CBS. This is absolutely disgusting. I feel like their should be some consumer protection for scenarios like these.
