I'm offended by Time Warner's efforts to rally their subscribers into participating in the company's negotiations with Fox. I pay TWC roughly $1500 a year to handle their vendors on my behalf. If they intend for me to protest their suppliers directly each time they can't get the deal they want, I would prefer that instead of posturing as my "defender", they give me the deal I really want: purchasing only the channels that I care about on an a la carte basis. That way I could truly have personal control of the size of my bill.
