so how are you specifically "in the know" to decide who is actually correct and make such a matter of fact stance? Its because of your blatant anti-DirecTV stance! This anti-stance should take away your reporting credentials; regardless of who you are so anti about. You should remain neutral and only be reporting actual facts. We should all take the wait and see approach as we have NO IDEA what is really going on behind the scenes. Including bloggers. | Bravo!!!!!

If it wasnt true dont you think DirecTV would come out and say it?
I don't see Versus coming back to DirecTV anytime soon, which is too bad because this fight is hurting both of them and thats bad for all their Customers and viewers.
I love how some of you guys love to hate everything I say yet you read every word with baited breath. To you guys I say THANK YOU for reading.

LOL. Reminds me of a sports talk radio program here in Alabama. Callers call in all of the time telling how his show is full of sh!t because he will bash a college team. They even tell him they never listen to his show (yea right) knowing that he is loving every call gets like that. People have to listen to know what he is saying.

I'm still in awe that there is a dispute going on and it doesn't involve E*!

People in Philadelphia will gladly trade a few months of no Versus to getting CSN Philly.
