Yeah Robert!!…just because you don’t watch ABC don’t talk your crap and make it bad for us people who do and want to watch the ABC channel…what you sposted you could have kept to yourself! I myself am sick of Cablevisons greed and crap..and I will switch if I miss the Oscars or any other shows I regularly watch!..so all of you people who don’t watch channel 7 or ABC, keep your stupid opinions to yourselves! No one cares what you have to say anyway!!..and since this problem doesn’t seem to apply to you, why are you even posting about it if you don’t care about it?!!

I do not care if cable cannot carry ABC. I never watch it anyway. ABC pays nothing to broadcast it network the gov allows them to broadcast for free and I did some looking around and guess what can can watch most of their shows on line. As far as greed goes both are greedy as hell, but that's the nature of business today. Everyone is trying to make more revenue while the content re-mains the same.

I am not a fan of cablevision, but I thought public channels were supported by commercials!

I will 100% move to fios and not be happy about it if cablevision does not make the deal with abc. The absolute only television worth watching is on channel 7!

I rarely watch network TV because the shows are always repeats, and the news is totally biased. What with Food Channel and HGTV, this is starting to become a disguesting habit. The Dolans are so greedy, it is mind-boggling. But I love Oprah and the Oscars, among a few other things. It is time the networks, became less opinionated, so I will watch the news on Fox, and shows on cable. Cablevision ---DEAL with it!!!

I can not get FIOS in the area I live and am forced to use Cablevision. I am not a big fan of Cablevision or Mr. Dolan but as stated I have no other choices. I made it through the Food Network and HGTV negotiations and I hope not to go through that again with ABC. I hope you can come to some understanding and keep the channel on while negotiating. I am watching less and less television as a result of all this!!!!!

PERSONALLY I HAVEN'T WATCHED ABC NEWS FOR AT LEAST 16 YEARS NOW BECAUSE I WATCH FOX NEWS WHICH GIVES YOU BOTH LIBERAL AND CONSERVATIVE VIEW POINTS FAIRLY. ABC NEWS LIKE CBS AND NBC ARE LIBERAL BIAS REPORTERS . SO MY OPINION IS THIS, I DON'T GIVE A ROW OF BEANS IF THEY NEVER COME BACK. SOMEONE WILL TAKE THEIR PLACE .
