With the great news from FOK today, that:
KEITH IS BACK!!!
The main question of the day (at least for me,) is how to find a way to watch his show, especially since I have Cablevision. (reserve the boos and hisses!)
For other Cablevision subscribers, I want to encourage you to call Cablevision and tell them, as I did,
On June 20, I will be watching Keith Olbermann on Current TV. Its up to Cablevision whether or not I will be watching him on your service or if I will switch to Dish.
To find the services that do carry Current TV, Go to: Current TV, doh? that was obvious wasn't it?
If you are like me and have no options than trying to get Cablevision to carry him, call because I am hopeful that it will do some good. I have just finished speaking to a customer service representative who told me that they need A LOT of subscribers to call in and request Current, so that they can go into negotiations and get the channel. This is the time to literally VOTE THE CHANNEL ONTO CABLEVISION!!!!! Vote with your Request!
As we were chatting, she said she would go talk to her supervisor about this. When she came back she said that her supervisor had asked her "was the channel request for Current?" And when my representative said yes, the supervisor said that they had gotten many phone calls requesting Current TV. So, FOK are out there and letting their voices be heard. Join in so that we can get Current TV on Cablevision.
Well, boys and girls, we have got their ear. So if you have Cablevision, don't give up hope yet. Join the rest of us and call the Customer Service number that is on your bill (I was told that this number is different in different areas,) and make sure that they know that you want Current TV and why. The service rep. told me that they will encode your account and then the numbers get automatically counted via that computer-thingy that tracks your whole life. (Oh that is another diary!)
This is a grassroots movement for FOK to bring him into the main cable providers and to get our guy back on the tubes.
Soooo, vote early, vote often!!!!! (chuckle, chuckle.)
