CableOne vs. Turner Networks

CableOne has removed Turner Network TV channels: CNN, CNN en Espanol, Headline News, Turner Classic Movies, TruTV, Boomerang, TBS, TNT, and Cartoon Network.

Apparently Turner "has demanded an increase of nearly 50%", and negotiations to reduce their cost has not been successful. It's difficult to understand why Turner feels it's OK to raise their rates to such an extent. I'll miss not having a couple of those channels, and really don't care about some of the others that Turner was providing. Overall though not having as many channels to choose from is generally bad.

I'm glad that CableOne will be reducing my bill, and can only hope they'll add other programming while also keeping my cost at a reasonable level.

Why do you think they are going to reduce your bill? Did you call them?

They're showing a static message on the former Turner channels stating that CableOne will be crediting all customers and there'e no need to call.

Also they provided a link to: »www.stopprogramminghikes.com/turner/
