Yeah, isn't it funny to learn T now owns CNN and HBO, some of the most biased to the left "news" organizations out there. Maybe it means they buy content the majority WITH MONEY want to watch...

Wasn't Time Warner a merger with TNT that was started by one of Jane Fonda's hubby's back in the day....

Anyway, I get the TNT library via Dish and just recorded one of the newer Star Wars (Rogue one) last night then realized I missed the start so set my DVR to record it tomorrow.

The content providers might have shot themselves with so much spread all over... I told Leslie Monves he could Frack himself before I'd pay to watch the new Star Trek on his paid network since I was ALREADY paying the greedy bastard for Showtime where that sort of content should go.

I can see why YouTube is so hot with the kids... no subscriptions for most and not a lot of ads. I read some city was shut down due to traffic from some wanting to see a YouTube star in person. I own Giggle... was on house money but during the downturn loaded up a bit more and am looking at taking profits soon... That seems the real winner to me. I'd buy more of that before T or VZ and CONTINUE to pay my own very large dividends by trading the swings in my IRA.
