In our market, our cable company doesn't even watch

One has to wonder why anyone would go to the trouble to blur a plastic breast when in the Phoenix market, Cox Cable doesn't even watch their own programming.

For this whole weekend of Feb 23-25, on the same channel where How It's Made runs, the local inserts the entire time have been from two weekends before (President's Weekend).

So for at least three days (prolly more knowing how well they pay attention) Cox has inserted many times each hour ads from the wrong time period in the WRONG TIME SLOT. Thus some national ad is stepped on by the local ineptitude.

If someone were watching it seems credible they could have caught this mistake (which is made many times EACH AND EVERY HOUR).

cox just supplies the feed nto the source or any network SAT or Cable.... only commercials they probably stick in is their local advertising from their own company....

That's right. You can tell they are locally inserted because of the local advertisers in them.
