Twin Cities-Could be a problem

[Bob Jensen]

There could be a problem with the airing of Fishing the Midwest television in the Twin Cities this weekend. Fox Sports North, formerly Midwest Sports Channel, is scheduled to air FTM at 1:30 Saturday afternoon. However, Fox Sports and one of the local cable companies are having some problems and the cable company may not be airing any programming from Fox Sports. They hope to have this fixed by Saturday, but you never know.

FTM will air in the Twin Cities on KSTC-TV channel 45 at Noon on Saturday.

This Fox Sports thing effects only some areas of the Cities and hopefully it will be fixed by Saturday.

Don't want our Twin Cities viewers to miss our show or any of the other fishing shows that debut this weekend.

Best Fishes,

Bob Jensen

Bob, in todays Mpls paper they're saying it won't be back for a while. It's got alot of people P.O.'d, including me.

They got the baseball, hockey & basketball contracts, now they want a 45% increase from the cable company.

Hey FOX, you can't have your cake and eat it too!

Bob that is only Time Warner owned cable Co. and only affects about maybe a stretch of 1/3 of TC customers Hennapin Cty mostly.
If those customers don't like it they can switch to satellite and let there dollars do the talking.
Another option for them is to send Time warner an E-mail and voice there opinion that they are willing to absorb the extra cost for the channel.
Looking forward to the show this season.
