OLN on West Coast Complaint

S o r n i said:

OK, so here's the deal: AFAIK, OLN's Tour de France programming starts each
day at 8:00 or 8:30 AM Eastern with a half-hour pre-race show and then live
coverage. This, of course, is 5 or 5:30 AM Pacific.

Here in Palo Alto on Comcast the morning coverage is repeated in
the evening starting at 8 pm. Maybe you can catch it then?

Oh, yeah, they re-play it throughout the day; but when the /drama/ starts I
want to see it LIVE!!!

(By the way, in years past they also pulled the Sunday OLN coverage in lieu
of that lame CBS highlight hour; they better not do that THIS year!!!)

Oddly enough, they did all day coverage, yesterday. Maybe this year, they'll
cover Sundays. That would be cool. Personally, I am not a big fan of the
flat, sprinter stages of the first week or so. But the hills are coming, and
complete Sunday coverage will be good.
Looks like it's going to be a good tour. I am happy that there is not
alot of anti-american stuff going on, my aren't the ( Old Europeans)
forgiving. Ciao, Len

Here in San Diego, however, Time Warner show friggin' INFOMERCIALS until
*7:00 AM* local time -- flipping a switch or something to suddenly carry OLN
in the middle of each day's stage.

I've just written both OLN and Time Warner (separately), but wanted to share
my rantage with you good people.

On DirecTV, OLN repeats it at Noon EDT and 8PM EDT.

I'm glad I live in Cox cable territory then. They haven't done
this to the tour (at least not so far). Actually, Cox cable
covers most of San Diego county and I think a majority of the
city. I don't miss Time Warner.

You could also call their customer service and yell at them.
Maybe you could get other customers to do the same. If enough
people do, they'll fix it.
