Suddenlink Threatens to Pull Viacom Channels Monday Sep 29 2014 16:29 EDT Suddenlink is threatening to pull Viacom channels from their lineup if the two sides can't reach a compromise on retransmission pricing by October 1. "...Despite our repeated requests for Viacom to reconsider, they refused to make a fair and reasonable offer for their channels," the company tells consumers over at the SuddenlinkOnYourSide.com website. "Because it’s simply not fair to ask Suddenlink customers to pay a lot more for channels that, on average, they watch a lot less, we will – starting this Wednesday, October 1 – no longer carry the Viacom channels." Instead, says Suddenlink, they'll be replacing those channels with non-Viacom owned channels that vary by area (you can head here to plug in your zip and check). |

Comedy CentralI'd pay $20 per month just for Comedy Central, but I wouldn't spend a dime on all of their other channels combined if i had a choice. | |
