Re: Killing two birds with one stone. I have and in 2006 when Republicans were in control of Congress a bill was sponsored to end the practice of forced bundling but then Democrats took over and it was immediately shelved.
Not coincidentally the top ten recipients of campaign contributions from Comcast, Time Warner, NBC Universal and the rest of the cable and entertainment lobby were Nancy Pelosi, Harry Reid, Hillary Clinton, Barrack Obama and the other top members of the Democratic Congressional leadership.
It's a very "sweet" arrangement they have amongst themselves, The cable channels pimp for the Democrats in their programming at every opportunity and the Democrats work to protect their unethical practices and keep the money flowing to them in return, a significant percentage of which goes right back into the campaign coffers.
But it looks good that things are going to finally change in 2010. |
