The channel was removed this evening. I have had it for like 2 months now. Wasn't Fox made available for the 100 package?? This sucks.

Thanks for the heads up.

At least it is balanced, since MSNBC is also not included.

I think you would call that "unfair and balanced".

( For the benefit of other readers, neither channel was listed anywhere as included in DLMax, it just happened to not be removed after the preview... for a list of included channels, see:

You are right. Apparently they left the free preview longer than they intended. I assumed they had added the channel to the Latino max package since they added it to the top 100.

Looks like I'll be getting the news exclusively from the net. I don't watch CNN etc.

Click to expand...

I find CNN to be much less biased than they used to be only a few years ago.

In any event, most of what is found on both Fox News and CNN is not "news". Natalle Holloway, Caylee Anthony, Scott Peterson, the "Octomom", Chris Brown and Rihanna, none of that is "news"...
