2. M$NBC looks awful on my tv, glad i don't watch anymore.
i watched the Sacramento mayoral debate, i flipped from the regular channel over to the high def one and it was about a million times better.

3. It does look terrible. They have the money, why not?
CNN is, what about Faux? I don't go near that channel, so I wouldn't know.

4. i don't know, cnn looks better but there isn't a specific high def channel for them on my cable
system, all the high def channels are in the 900's and those are just beautiful to behold, high def hockey, really sweet.

5. I think they're going HD next year.
I wish it was this year during the general election. Then again, my stupid cable company would wait a year before getting it. They still haven't added CNN HD. And unfortunately I can't get satellite.

9. Comcast already did that to the Portland area awhile ago
A lot of anger here locally, but it didn't do any good.

10. But they're keeping The Golf Channel on Basic Cable...

12. It looks like hell our our televisions. Thanks for posing the question.
They will soon be losing audience share.
