Does anybody know what is going on with Spectrum and Viacom?

1 Answer

Answer :

I saw a blurb on my television the other day, asking viewers to petition Spectrum about trying to drop so many premium channels, it has something to do with Viacom. Anybody know what that is all about? If they drop that many channels, I might as well drop them, I will be pretty much down to just basic cable.
