Wow. That's truly scary, BG.
Fox also set the precedent within the past year or so of networks being paid fees by cable and satellite companies for airing their broadcast stations. While these negotiations were going on, they goaded subscribers to put pressure on their providers, insinuating that their carriers were dropping Fox-owned stations. As a business, they may well have been entitled to ask for these fees in private negotiations (as had always been the case), but they sure know how to play a dirty game.
