So Verizon dumps all of its non-profitable business on Frontier. Now that Frontier has failed again, Verizon picks them up because it's going to expand their business to new areas? They were already in those areas and dumped them. Feels like ust more corporate games as they shuffle the deck chairs around.
hopefully Apple TV introduces a live guide for services it integrates with like Hulu Live and fubo, as well as some of the free channels, I really enjoy that feature on the Google TV
to the folks in the comments: public broadcasting means everyone has access, barely any of the funding comes from the federal government
I like pbs wild kratts
If PBS receives Federal funding, they cannot limit Federal control over their propaganda. If PBS wants to continue down the path of their leftist drivel, they should eschew accepting Federal Funding and then go truly public with stockholders. NPR and PBS need to be set free and away from being American Pravda.
What new features are in the guide for the Ultra and the other Roku players? You didn’t show any, and I don’t see anything new.
PBS and NPR was supposed to be in the middle but went to far left that many people stopped viewing/listening to them. Those that believe they have been to far left for many rears don't agree with their tax money funding them. At least with late night tv talk shows people that stopped watching them are not watching their ads and therefore not helping to pay for them.
i cant get pbs anyway
Lets remove Trump from EVERYTHING.
