No one had assumed anything.. we were told by the ceo of the company in the last charlie chat that this one would involve mpg 4 and that would be it.. its the lies and buisness practices of charles ergen thats the issue and the direction that the company is going. Its funny how half of us can see the direction and its not a good one.. we all want to see dish succeed but under the current regime dish will not sucseed. if it does it will not be as profitable as it can be.
I am so beyond outraged by the fact that nothing was mentioned about MPEG4 and HD that I here and now vow to not watch BET, EWTN,TBN, BingoTV, Angel 1, The Cartoon Network, Galavision,The Golf Channel,The Travel Channel, or any of the shopping channels for the next 18 months! It's time we make a stand people. Only then will they truly know that we refuse to take this lying down! By boycotting these channels I intend to send a strong yet stern message to those who sit on high at Dish that not only am I outraged, but am truly disappointed that Charlie has decided to one month tell us what we want to hear, then the next time changes the story. I just don't know where he finds it proper to do this kind deceit to people. Maybe he just figured that if the American people are gullible enough to not call the president and the administration on all of their lies and decides, then something a whole lot less significant like satellite television wouldn't matter either! I mean if George, Condelisa, Dick, Colin, and the rest of the gang can convince us that there are stockpiles of weapons, and that Sadam had everything to do with 9/11 and then we discover that none of that is true and they flat out lied to each and every one of us, but we don't call the administration on something that huge and unforgiving in my book, then why should Charlie see it as a big deal not to mention MPEG4 and HD in a chat even though he said he would. If we don't care about the one where human lives are at stake, then why should we care about the other when it is just tv? Just trying to put a bit of perspective on the whole thing. I will now climb down off the soapbox and make room for someone else.
