City Comptroller John C. Liu stated the following on Cablevision’s blackout of WPIX:
“These blackouts are happening all too often. Cablevision, as a City Franchisee and service provider, should do all it can to ensure that this blackout is resolved swiftly because New Yorkers deserve to get what they pay for, not be unfairly punished because of battling corporate interests. If a swift resolution cannot be achieved, the Department of Information Technology and Telecommunications must step up to hold the provider accountable to the subscribers, who feel the brunt of this irresponsible disagreement.”

We want to add that we can not understand why since one can can phone service from any carrier, that one can not get cable television service from any cable provider. Especially now since we can not see WPIX. We want to know if the subscribers to Cablevision will be getting a refund for the lack of service.
What's your opinion on the matter.
