    Oh, please. They're being bribed by the TV subscription providers (obviously using the money from their many suc- err, subscribers) to veer their focus away from free OTA TV need.

    Oh? Have China conquered the US already? (Yes, it's only a matter of time when the US Constitution will be used as asswipe for the Chinese Communist leader.)

    Well, I have to believe it. How do you think Obama get elected ... barring any allegation of outside influences.

    In a way, you're right. They suckered us with iPod, cable and dish subscription services ... even Pay-2-Play games like World of WarCraft.

    In a few words, if you want better services, you have to keep paying them.

    Even free tv and radios aren't worth getting better services (which are paid through advertisements).

    Sooner or later, we'll have to pay to flush our own damn toilet, and I'm not counting the sewer bills.

    Okay here goes:

    Hey cynical! I don't really believe that the common folk control this country or this world because big business rule and they are the true power and if they want something to happen it will happen.

    Ever see the original Rollerball movie where corporations rule the world? As we become a global economy that scenerio seems more like reality than fiction.

    Here on the Big Island in Honokaa, my uncle reports that NONE of OTA channels work. Haven't tried it myself because the TV dedicated to that at my parents' place is now hooked up to cable, because the main TV died a few months ago. So now I have an antenna, unopened converter box and nothing to plug them into.

    Oh well, at least with cable my Mom can continue to watch "The Young and the Restless."

    I however think it stinks that Raycom Media pulled this huge channel switch. The real prize in this whole Shared Services Agreement was getting all of the CBS content under Raycon's fledgling NBC roof. And the KGMB owners/viewers OTA stuck with My Network TV crap and a 2 - 6 UH football team that you can't watch most games even on the same day delay. 2nd class TV really.

    Oh, effin' joy.

    Seriously, as much as I like my wrestling entertainment fix, there's no need to swap channels between a major long-running network affiliate (i.e., CBS) with a weak reality-edited network with absolutely no future (i.e., MyNTV).

    Now I cannot watch CBS programmings in Kaunakakai OTA because the Maui transmitter for then-KFVE is effin' weak.

    Bravo, Raycom, Blangiardi and Fink.

    The KGMB anchor desk needs more seats or expand its length because there's not enough anchors sitting there.
    They should be more like the NFL pregame shows where they bust laugh like Sammy Maudlin at everything another analyst says.

    DirecTV and DISH both have CBS programming on KGMB 9.

    If anyone here has some insight on this, I'd love to hear it.

    Ha ha ha! In the interest of adding to useless funny stuff, might I share what I've coined the merged operation? "17". As in, 8 + 9.

    To the other comments... ooh... want to say something... sitting on fingers...
