Is the corporation LIN slow or what? Why should Time Warner pay them more?

I mean is it just me, because the dispute between LIN and Time Warner is ridiculous. Why should Time Warner pay them more even if it is a little bit of money out of their pocket?

Ok, so for me in Ohio its branded as

CW or WWHO

, its basic cable. Cable that if you had no cable company you could still watch because its like 1 of 8 channels that is on for free.

Free, remember that

. So they want to get paid by cable corporations for them airing their already free channel.

My opinion is why should they get paid if its airing for free? I say just when you want to watch the channel unplug the TV and use an antenna. Oh yeah Time Warner also tells you to do that themselves, while giving away antennas to their customers, during this “black out.” That’s what people are calling it. If you don’t want to do that, you could always watch the episodes on the computer because CW shares their programming on their site. Still not happy? Its probably illegally by other people on youtube upload the episodes. Its illegal but it is not like you put the footage on the internet, you didn’t download it, you went to a site and it was there…I’m getting side tracked I’ll discuss the illegal copy right issue after my LIN argument.

I just don’t understand, they’re trying to get their “viewers” to switch from Time Warner to Dish. Going as far as to make a contract where you get $50 “incentive” for switching, which is not bad. But all this hassle for a free channel. My opinion is I don’t side with either side because LIN is being greedy and so is Time Warner. Why should people pay for free service? If LIN doesn’t like it remove their channel from the free airwaves and create a pay to see online programming viewing thing. Things are expensive and I understand the value of a dollar, I don’t want to pay more even if it is a small amount for my cable service. Worst I don’t want to pay more for a channel I barely watch, except for Gossip Girl, and a channel that I can get for free. I also don’t want to switch.

The channel over all is no great lose for me. I can rely with it being online. It creates a space for a new channel to air. Its not a mayor lose for Time Warner. Its ridiculous LIN cannot be compared to the size of the Time Warner Cable corporation. Overall this money dispute would only lead more viewers to turn their backs to it and move on to a new channel. Plus, the companies in charge of the programs might even decide to remove their programming from that channel to another channel due to customer availability and lose of ratings. I think they just screwed themselves.

But I get it you need money to live, especially to live well, and by well I mean to succeed in life. However, the company is doomed because they don’t have no control and no power. Worst is that they aren’t getting paid because their channel is FREE, which is all their doing. They could have succeed if they had stayed friendly with all instead of being greedy. See they get paid for airing their programming, and for airing the commercials. They get paid for that stuff, and its not too shabby. But they got a head of themselves. Before they went on strike for money, they should have had high ratings like those of channels that do get paid and aren’t free networks. Examples of are those of Disney, MTV, E!, and others.

Basicly What I Am Saying To LIN is:

Stop fighting for a ridiculous reason, and get a hold of yourselves. Don’t ask Time Warner for money you aren’t going to get it until your important, which your not. Behave and slowly take over the ratings then hit them low for the money.
