said by fifty nine:The FCC is ruling that Cablevision give up its competitive advantage for public benefit.
I also don't see any reason why the FCC should force cablevision to give up its advantage to competitors while Verizon isn't obligated to share its fiber network.
So you would be OK with Comcast refusing to allow any other company to carry NBC Universal networks?
Just because the cable company also owns the content does not mean they can refuse to allow that content to be available for other companies. Cablevision is able to negotiate a fair price to other companies that want to carry that content, so what's the problem?
Greedy corporations are the ruin of America, and apologists like you make it easy for them.
