They are not getting paid their money because Jim Crane's stubborn stance has severely hampered the Network's ability to pay those fees. If the...
Ain't that the truth.
Comcast put the most favored nations clause in the contract because they had reservations about those numbers so you can stop with the "their"...
This an incredibly dumb and sad thread.
I guess you didn't read the original post regarding the purpose of this thread.
