Hate the Kardashians? Sign this petition

[MatiasTz]

I mentioned this on the other Kard-thread, but I'll repeat.

I don't think any petition directly to E! will be effective. The only times in my memory I've seen petitioning to be effective against a show is by targeting advertisers instead of the network.

TV makes money by selling ad space on their shows, the higher the ratings, the more they charge. But, if advertisers percieve their link to any said show to be negative, they will drop the show whatever the numbers.

All cable and satellite customers are getting screwed, stuck paying for channels we don't want. Until hell freezes over and we are offered a la carte programming, the raping will continue.

The corporations that own E and other networks bundle the crap with the few channels worth watching, the cable & sat providers have to pay for all the channels and the cost is passed on to the consumer. It would be interesting if congress tried to get involved, don't know if bundling could be determined to be illegal. However, congress is already bought off, so they will never rock the corporate boat.

Excellent point. And consumers should have the choice on what channels we want and don't want. But companies are out to, well, make as much money as they can and as fast as they can.
Simply give consumers the choice. Whether they want 10 channels or 15 or 30 or whatever. And pay per channel. Simple. Consumers gain. But companies lose. So we get screwed -- ha ha!
