One small complaint

[ricthemic]

Love our DVC timeshare and all the Disney World Resorts.
Been a member for five years and I believe it has paid for itself already. Just back from SSR. I really wish they would add FOX NEWS Network to their TV broadcast system. Does it have anything to do with Disney owning ABC?
Any ideas on who I would send this request to?

Maybe Disney doesn't want the competition with the fairy tales they produce. LOL.

I don't think Disney wants to put alot of money into the cable or satellite bill.

Hateful liberals might try and boycott Disney if there was suddenly a choice.

I'd love to see Nick at Nite or TVland added. We like to watch the sitcom reruns late at nite.

Why is it only FOX News that gets these requests?

I go to Disney to ESCAPE! I want them to put on more "fluff" but no news LOL!

 

[CarolAnnC]

Since this is not DVC specific, I am sending this over to our Resort Board for discussion.

But they have CNN. I think Fox & Disney are owned by the same parent company, so I it's weird that they'd have CNN.

Because they have CNN, so there's no need to request it.

Really?? I don't think that CNN and FOX News run in the same circles yet alone report the same news. I never noticed there was no FOX news...I guess I don't miss Hannity when Mickey is in the house.

Im suprised also, Fox News has more than twice the ratings than cnn.
But, in all honesty, we dont watch tv hardly at all while at Disney.

Not true. The Walt Disney Company doesn't have a 'parent company', and it has no corporate relationship with Fox.

Fox News Channel is owned by News Corp, which is a large multinational media conglomerate run by Rupert Murdoch.

At first I thought it was my mother that had started this thread! She loves FOX news and is always so upset that only CNN is available. I think she has requested it before, but it wouldn't hurt to add your suggestion!

Well, now I'm pretty sure you have a good idea why that will pretty much never happen.

I just wish the old disney cartoons channel wasnt taken off at DVC, 96 I think?

Oh yes, totally wishful thinking but isn't Disney where wishes come true?

I wish they had MSNBC with Keith Olberman!!! You know us Liberals!!!

Now that is one of the funniest things I have read on any forum!!!

I consider CNN to be a much more global choice, name recognition wise. When I lived in Norway we had CNN. Perhaps that has something to do with it?
