How Do You Manipulate Advertisers And Broadcasters?
• Choose a TV show or broadcast that irritates you. For this example, we will use the BTN – Big Ten Network. • Remember the history. The BTN has begun extorting money from fans and cable companies by only providing these games to cable company and satellite TV subscribers for games that in all past seasons aired FREE TO ALL on broadcast and cable by funded only by regular advertisers. Now, the average Joe cannot see his favorite Big Ten team play regular season games unless he has satellite TV or pays a premium for sports tier to his cable subscriber. Suffice it to say…you cannot point your TV antenna on your roof towards the local station and get IU or Purdue basketball games for free like in the past. • Find the solution. Find a friend who gets the regular season games on his satellite or is paying the upgrade fee to his cable provider. Ask to watch the game with them or have them videotape the game. Or, go to a bar that is showing the games. Write down the names of the advertisers
