SuFantasma 0 #1 January 1, 2009 I realize that every DZ.commer was concerned about the future of SpongeBob on Time Warner's Network... I am happy to provide you with the first sign that the hard times are beginning to show a bottom-side ... SpongeBob has avoided a last-minute layoff by Time Warner, thanks to the efforts of Time Warner and Viacom .... It's a great feeling to know that in tough times, when the economy is rough and wars are raging ... we take time to honor and maintain employed our fictional characters !

SuFantasma 0 #4 January 1, 2009 Quote WOW, what great news, the world is saved from economic disaster! I am particularly fond of the statement: "The dispute would have affected some 13.3 million Time Warner Cable subscribers, mainly in New York state, the Carolinas, Ohio, Southern California and Texas; and 2.4 million customres of Bright House Networks in Michigan, Indiana, California, Alabama and Florida." Wow, "affected"... think of the implications.... millions of "affected" Americans.... deprived! But wait, there is more ! "Time Warner Chief Executive Glenn Britt on Wednesday had called Viacom's demand for a 12 percent increase in fees — an extra $39 million on top of the estimated $300 million it pays Viacom annually — extortion and outrageous given the recession. Viacom countered that the requested increase amounted to an extra $2.76 annually per subscriber." I am touched ! A true example of an American citizen definding our rights!
