DIRECTV Responds to Senator Kerry's Call to Restore Sunbeam Television Stations

EL SEGUNDO, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- The following statement is in response to Senator John Kerry's letter to DIRECTV and Sunbeam Television dated Jan. 24, 2012:

DIRECTV continues to stand ready to put all three of Sunbeam's stations back on immediately while we negotiate so that customers in both cities can receive their local programming and so that customers in the Boston area can enjoy the upcoming Super Bowl. We await confirmation from Sunbeam Television that they are onboard with Senator Kerry's solution.

 

[Mr Tony]

The following statement is in response to Senator John Kerry's letter to DIRECTV and Sunbeam Television dated Jan. 24, 2012:

their response should be "You (and your cohorts, the NAB and the FCC) have screwed up locals on satellite so bad the best answer we can give you is STAY OUT OF IT and give them 2 middle fingers as a going away signature

Why is it that Kerry is the only one to b**ch about it. He did the same thing years ago when NFL Net had the Patriots game and it ended up being on like 8 stations there.

Something about getting hockey stick in his face while playing. Should have had a helmet on.

So what, he is trying to make it sound like it is D* that is keeping them off the air. He has his pockets stuffed with Sunbeam money. Maybe if they didn't pay him so much they wouldn't have to increase their price 3 fold eh?
