Cable Tightens Its Belt

Now the National Geographic Channel, probably one of the most aesthetic and educational channels on cable, has been moved to digital cable channel 450. Basic Cable viewers are now unable to experience the high quality production work of people who have the most respect for the environment.

The channel perhaps needed to be moved to digital to take full advantage of high definition video signal, but denying a majority of the cable subscribers such good programming may be dire for the company itself, as well as the overall behavior of an audience denied the education provided by the National Geographic Channel.

Does Comcast Cable hate the environment? Maybe, if they get their kicks blocking environmental programming from the basic cable audience?

Do we need Comcast to get access to National Geographic? No. we can now go to http://channel.nationalgeographic.com

The Internet Prevails again, proving that even cable television will subside along with the rest of the old broadcast television, radio and print media. Goodbye Comcast. Lots o' luck.
