"It's like overage charges for cel phone use." No, actually it *IS* overage charges. Which oddly enough, many cel phone providers have found to be less popular over time. Hmmm. Party like it's 1996 with TWC! The 84% figure seems so ridiculous, 'course they will "never share the raw data" on that... LOL @ the TWC mouthpiece network’s parrot piece.

TWC just keeps giving the FCC reasons to finally make some rules in the consumer's favor. TWC is certainly not the only media company pushing propaganda and biased news but they haven't been as smart about it as the rest. The other's at least try to make it a little less obvious.

They also included the 'parent company' disclaimer at the end of the broadcast - that probably should have been at the beginning.

News 14 can only be seen on TWC. You can't get it over the air or through a satellite service. Only cable subscribers receive this news channel.
