    This is stupid TWC pulled my ABC station today here in Raleigh and I heard they did it down there in Houston too. I want my ABC back. Another reason to get the dish.

    Oh well. I don't think I'm going to miss much, anyway. I got sick of Regis and that millionaire crap a long time ago.

    It wasn't nationwide. It affected all TWC viewers in Houston, and some TWC viewers in markets such as L.A., Fresno, Raleigh, and others.

    I heard a funny comment on the John J. Morning Show. A woman called in about loosing power at 3:00am due to the storm, and he replied -- "Yeah, it was Time Warner. They cut off power to everyone with cable."

    The removal of ABC is nationwide from what I understand. It affected over 3,000,000 viewers.

    Yes, which is why I said it was "nationwide". It didn't affect Raleigh only. Hence the 3,000,000 user count I also added (TW has more than that many viewers). Doh! Come on people, follow along. It ain't that hard. [​IMG]
