FoxNews down on DirecTV
FoxNews Network ^ | 10/16/2012 | Vanity

Posted on 10/16/2012 3:56:19 AM PDT by WVKayaker

Watching Heather and Heather on FoxNews around 0545 EST, and suddenly it went out, with a messaging stating I was no longer authorized for that channel. The others work fine...

Now have a "technical difficulty" signature, but what's up?

Is this an Obama "October Surprise"?

I like to see Heathers in the Morning (love to see her at night!). It makes the day better!

(The other pic of her limped out...)

Nothing on the web or any DTV messages about a scheduled shutdown. A major hack?

We’re having the same problem here, temporary technical difficulty on Direct TV. I wonder if DISH Network and cable TV are broadcasting FOX News?? Do you suppose Obama succeeded in booting it off the air?

I tried Imus for about 1/2 second. I'm now watching a DVR'd "Iron Chef America" (Garces v Weitzman, with funky looking 'silky' chickens!.

If I can't see those beautiful women, I can still watch beautiful food when it's done!!!!)!

Same here. Went online, did a reset, finally back up over an hour later.

It's back now, but my reset did not work. I even used the iPad app to refresh my receiver, just in case the monthly ping messed up!

Curious that these "technical difficulties" start when Zero is in the debate spotlight!

FOX is back up. Whew!

But I found this story at the FOX News website. Apparently you can’t protest in Obama’s presence and now you can’t call him a Communist. Does this kind of censorship remind you of Nazi Germany?

ABC Censors Obama Communist Joke
The ABC television network has removed jokes about President Obama and former President Clinton from an upcoming episode of “Last Man Standing,” according to the show’s star – Tim Allen.

Allen told The New York Post that the Disney-owned network yanked a number of political jokes from an episode that is scheduled to air just before the presidential election.

Same thing at the same time with Time Warner Cable. My whole TV cable box locked up and I had to reboot.
