Charter is still attacking EWTN (Urgent)

[Jerusalem]

EWTN – The dispute continues(Charter moves EWTN from 25 to 152):

Hello fellow Catholics,

Thank you for you quick response but the battle is not over. Charter is still playing
games. Thanks to your response yesterday they put EWTN back on aire but there is still a problem that has to be dealt with. Charter has moved EWTN to channel 152 in my local area. They were on Channel 25. You need to call them & tell them to put the programming back on Channel 25.

This is important for several reasons:

1.) Generally speaking, MORE PEOPLE VIEW THE 1st 100 CHANNELS on cable.
The 1st hundred channels are important in cable television as they are the ones
most accessible and easier to view. The cable boxes are programmed to start with
the earlier channels. This provides better access to people outside the Catholic
Faith for viewing & for their conversion. Hence the earlier channels provide a greater
access to the secular world & to non-Catholics. And the 1st hundred channels are
generally of higher ratings and primetime: (ie. more people view them).

2.) This is a political game. The taking EWTN off air 1 day ago & today the moving of
the channel to 152 happened bc. EWTN criticized the Health Care Bill. This is my
opinion bc. it happened as soon as the network started broadcasting more blatant
attacks on the bill. It appears someone doesn’t want the station to criticize the
administration & is afraid of its influence on fellow Catholics. They deny this &
say it is cost & blah blah blah but contracts are begun in January not negotiated
in March. This is a song & dance they give–don’t buy it.

3.) EASIER ACCESS

   This is for the conversion of souls.  We want EWTN to be as easily accessible as 
   possible.  You may think to yourself ‘ah well at least they put it back on aire’.  
   This is precisely the game they want to play.  Don’t give them an inch, a millimeter,
   a hair breaths’ of anything.  The adage of the saints has always been ‘never give 
   Satan any quarter on any sin on anything’.  Give him nothing, except no 
   compromise, make no deal, no reconciliation.  We need easy access for our Faith to 
   other viewers.  We don’t want them to have to dig through a bunch of channels to 
   find our Faith.

I sincerely thank all those who responded earlier and called the station but I ask you once again to take up the battle cry for Christ your God. He is calling you to defend him against the prince of liars of this world who is trying to blot out the message of Jesus Christ. We are the ONE, The HOLY, APOSTOLIC, CATHOLIC Church. We accept no compromise from the enemy of souls, we will not accept his attempts to placate us, we will not compromise.

Call Charter Today and tell them:
“I will not accept your anti-Catholic Bigotry. I want EWTN back on air on channel
25. There are other viewing options I can go to & I want this message to go to
your higher ups.”

huummm,maybe if a few (thousand) customers called and said they would be looking into Satalite instead of this Charter Cable that would be the kick in the rear they need… just a thought.:newidea:

I really doubt there’s any big Satanic plot by Charter to destroy EWTN, nor that Oliver Cromwell’s ghost has somehow taken control of the company. Or that they’re punishing EWTN for taking a stand on Obamacare – in that case, they’d probably really be hammering FoxNews.

It’s probably economics. Some bean counter decided that for whatever arcane reason, it made more economic sense to put EWTN there than in the lower channels. Since you can go directly to the channel via the remote, for me it’s “six of one, half a dozen of the other.”

And, anyway, I’ve always believed in Hanlon’s Razor: “Never chalk up to malice what can just as easily be explained by incompetence.”

They have been attacking FOXNEWS but it is a larger conglomerate & harder to
take down. They have more money and are more powerful. Many advertisers have dropped ‘Glen Beck’ bc. of receiving pressure from outside sources. But they have many powerful sponsors to back them so it is harder to go after Fox. The White House said openly that it quote “declared war on Fox”. As laughable as this is - I’m not sure even what this means. Notice Glen Beck & his shows have changed advertisers since he first started broadcasting on FOX.

The Catholic Church make up a significant & important public opinion in the United States.
It is not unusual for political organizations to put pressure on religious or business organizations. I know this first hand as our Congressman audited my fathers business 5 times bc. my mom was an open opponent and critic of his Pro-life positions. I’m not saying this happens all the time but it does happen.

I’m just asking fellow Catholics for charity & to call the station regardless of the reason it will hurt souls.

Nothing has been used to replace channel 25. It is blank or just skips from 24 to 26 so
I don’t think that’s the reason. Regardless, It would be nice if some people would call.
