Jaded March 12, 2018 Share March 12, 2018 Here's a Variety article about it. Here are some instructions I found on blocking channels when it comes to DirecTV. I have plenty blocked with U-verse especially all the religious ones with nasty guys like Swaggart and Bakker. If AT&T tries adding the channel to the U-verse lineup I'll be blocking it too. Menu (button)>Options>System>Hide Channels Be sure to "Save" when done. Each TV must be done separately. 3 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/51803-aftermath-in-the-media/page/6/#findComment-4136173

How many people “hate watch” shows like Teen Mom and 19 Kids and Counting? Who cares why someone watches especially if they watch with their kids. IE it’s one of the reasons I am extremely against hate watching shows. I like to make fun of shows as much as the next person but if I don’t actually LIKE the show I won’t watch it.

I was curious, not about the "religion", but what the channel was going to broadcast. From what little I saw, it did look like an infomercial. People from all around the world were saying how "$cientology is about freedom and how it fights for ALL rights of mankind, etc." Ha! I'm sure members of the sea org would have a different opinion. The people, or should I say robots, basically all said the same thing and most of them barely blinked, if at all. Then the E-meter was discussed. The auditor was totally robotic and the can holder was acting like Tom Cruise! He was smiling and laughing as if wasting $250k talking about his "past lives" was the best thing that ever happened to him. I turned it off after that. However, I did go through the guide to see what their programming was going to consist of. It was the same 4 shows for the next couple of days. The infomercial, an LRH special, "Meet a Scientologist" - the description was the a couple who make banjos, and some other show that was described as how "$cientology is ending violence in LA gang territory and drug ridden Columbia." LOL! At this point, I think if you look up the word ABSURD in the dictionary, the definition will say: the $cientology channel. On 3/12/2018 at 2:26 PM, ramble said: Speaking of Shelly...

I believe Mike Rinder posted on his blog how Scamatology paid a Los Angeles PBS station for its old, run down production studio. The station made $45 million and kept its FCC license, while all Scamatology got was a run down production studio that needed significant upgrades. Because Scamatology bought a satellite channel, they don't need to get an FCC license. However, if they decided they wanted to set up their own full-cable channel or over-the-air broadcast channel, they would need to get an FCC license as the FCC has oversight powers on those types of signals.

The blog posts are up to week 4, if you haven't seen them yet it's well worth the read.
