"It will not initially be carried on local cable or satellite services but Toellner said he received a verbal agreement with Verizon today for RTV to be carried on FiOS. "
This is completely different to what you stated. A verbal commitment to carry is not "Verizon is replacing WNGS with RTV/RTN which is a sub-channel at WGRZ-Buffalo by the end of the month."
I assumed you had some other updated information, Oh well.

I was told by the Verizon engineer for Amherst area that it would be on by the end of July. Why should I lie or even better, why should I have to authenticate every thing I post. Hob, you never authenticate anything you post. You ask others to provide links and you never do.
When is TWC going to carry RTV/RTN? Has anyone made a commitment? According to the Time Warner customer service representative I talked to on the phone, Familyland is still available on channel 169. I guess showing a screen that tells the customer it has ended broadcasting counts as a channel.

"why should I have to authenticate every thing I post."
You don't. You have however chosen to be a anonymous poster so unfortunately anything you say has little credence. You have no posting history and to be honest you could be anyone...or in fact several different people as anyone can post using rick4769. I dont believe every Tom, Dick and Rick claiming to have inside information.
"You ask others to provide links and you never do."
What links would you like me to provide?
It would be interesting to see how accurate your Verizon's friends information is. The FIOS forum is often complaining about dates given for program adds that tend to be several months off.
