NBC? ABC? They Suck

Since NBC is on a rampage to make John McCain look bad and Barack Obama look like he deserves sainthood, I refuse to watch them. After ABC announced it didn't want its staffers displaying patriotism by wearing flag lapel pins and other national pride items, that channel is forbidden at the beach house. CBS is borderline, but still acceptable. They have the best shows when you look at all the older major networks, in my humble opinion. I really despise NBC and their awful prejudice style of journalism. Thank God in Heaven for Fox News. Don't agree? Fine with me. So, alternative TV providers are being sought. Let's face it every dime counts. When half my cable bill is for a string of channels never watched it needs to be cut in half.

Alternatives. Try HULU. Yes, I know that it is affiliated with NBC in some ways, but many other channels are involved. Just go take a look and sign up. It's been used at the beach house for several months and is a joy when needing a break for a few minutes. Several other services exist out there and I'd love any information you have about these sites. Use the comments or email me! The addy is cybersouth@gmail.com. Be sure and have your convertor box or HDTV capable set by February 17th, 2009. The NTSC standard will go dark and HDTV will become our new standard.

"We cannot blame the schools alone for the dismal decline in SAT verbal scores. When our kids come home from school do they pick up a book or do they sit glued to the tube, watching music videos? Parents, don't make the mistake of thinking your kid only learns between 9:00 a.m. and 3:00 p.m."
