DirectTV execs are Communists

It's a private, for profit business. Kind of by definition they are not communists.

How AT&T helped build far-right One America News

Off topic, but does Reuters refer to CNN and MSNBC as "far-left" in their articles?

He called the execs commies, not the business itself.

Just got off the phone with Directv.

Offhsore customer service rep lied to me and said OAN not being cancelled.

Asked for manager in the USA. Spoke to a very nice rep who never once argued with me and told me "we've had TENS OF THOUSANDS of these calls already".

I was told that OAN will NOT be available after mid April on Directv. Told rep I was cancelling unless they change this communist style silencing of speech.

Will never do business with them or AT&T again if they pull the plug on OAN.

I don't have DirectTV, but I guess I could call them up, string them along, and tell them to go frick themselves just when they think they are about to close the deal.


Admirable intention but probably the only person that would damage is the customer service rep who is trying to meet their daily quotas. I'm sure they have people from both sides of the aisle working for them in the joe jobs.

When they ask you why you are leaving make sure you tell them that they do not carry your channel any longer.



Yes , I told them due to them not carrying OAN any longer . Lady gave me the same streaming excuse . These companies simply don’t get it .

Seeing as how AT&T also owns CNN, maybe they should put "far right."

Sorry. Forgot that part. AT&T also owns CNN.

Of ALL things -- "DirecTV"?? Kinda cryptic, no?

Honestly? We can think of a thousand other companies and better ways to shake up Commie-Globalist Inc.

Then why are they cutting popular programming? Not a money issue then why get rid of a channel.Im sure there are many channels w/ less viewership if it's just crowed.

Are people boycotting att/direct for them airing the oan content?

Fringe is the operative word when it comes to OAN. What's their viewership numbers at night? 50,000 all ages? Maybe?
