CBS Blocked Dish Network over the hopper.
CBS has blocked Dish Network. READ THAT AGAIN. CBS blocked Dish. It is NOT the other way around as the media outlets would like you to believe. The misinformation spread by CBS, FOX and other media outlets is appalling as they continue to say “Dish blocked CBS”. Liars and damned liars.
You can get these local stations for free with a antenna. They charge Dish to carry this otherwise free programming. What they don’t like is the technology Dish offers to skip commercials, the hopper. This cuts into what CBS can charge for advertising. Specifically drug commercials, otherwise known as the evening news.
I am going to personally retype this about 40 times today because it is time these media moguls quit fabricating news and telling their continuous lies to mislead the public. This is a revenue grab by the networks, not the carriers. Share the truth. Otherwise people believe the PR execs at these lying affiliates and it will only embolden them to force all carriers to include their drug commercials despite technology advances that allow us to skip yet another damned Viagra ad.

“Straight to hell” with the Sharing Economy
Here’s what “sharing economy” means: People want to offer goods and services outside of the scope of regulation, let caveat emptor reign supreme. This is not going to be a popular post.
Want to rent out a room in your house without any of the restrictions placed on hotels while dodging the taxes these legitimately run businesses have to pay? Claim “sharing economy”. Want to hire out you car without having to be a licensed taxi? Yep, scream “sharing economy”.
Sounds like pure free market huh? Just great until it is YOUR next door neighbor’s house that becomes a revolving door of strangers in their new illegal, unlicensed bed and breakfast. “Ride sharing” services like the God foresaken Uber are all fun and money until women get raped and assualted. Good times when your credit card gets unexpectedly nailed for what would have been an $18 cab ride during a claimed “surge”. Cashing in on hipster ignorance seems to be Uber’s business model. Bad actor Ashton Kutcher, with his passion for hipsters, pumped money in so he can take from his fan base during a “surge”.
Consumer safegaurds matter with regards to both physical and financial safety. The desperately sought lack of regulation in the “sharing economy” provides neither and once these alernatives have to play by the same rules as legitimate player in the industry they will learn WHY no one did it before. In the past people were smart enought understand they would not make money if they had to play by the rules. We now have a generation of hipster trickies who think the rules don’t apply to them. Please, let’s hear the word “entitled” used out of context some more. Meanwhile let these little ego trips manifest while defying authority for profit. Then lay down the hammer and bankrupt their grandchildren who haven’t even been born yet. Portland and New Delhi and poised to start arresting Uber drivers and inpounding their cars. PROCEED.
Whoa. The depths some financially desperate people will sink to.
A couple of years ago I received the following LinkedIn message from the account of Suzanne Witmer, a contact from my days at the AKC. She was selling ServerTech power distribution units at the time. There was more to the message but I cut the screenshot short because, well, you’ll get the point…
I was genuinely concerned but skeptical at the time I got the message. Never seen anything like it on LinkedIn before. Of course I didn’t call or send money. I imagine her friends on FB got a similar message.

That looks like the face of someone who drove into a tree on meth alley. Crystal meth is not your friend girl. It will make you do things like try to steal from every professional contact you’ve ever had. I hope you’re in jail because it’s likely the best place for ya right now. You took your children through this with you and that part is unforgivable, earning you one solid CRAZY BITCH.
