Vz or History Channel Put Ads on Channel 126?

Hey All, One of the pleasures of watching the Military History Channel (126) was the absolute lack of commercials. The only breaks between programming were usually notices of upcoming series, informative clips, etc...  Now, this channel is as bad as trying to watch a movie on TNT, where a 2 hour movie takes 2.5 hours because of the repetitious, obnoxious, nauseating amount of commercials. Now on 126, they are exactly the same. 6 to 7 minutes of programming, then 3-4 minutes of commercials. Info-mercials, GEICO stupidity, on and on ad nauseum. My question: Who changed the policy? Was it the MHC, ( run by Discovery Channel I think) or was it Vz who decided to do this. They have taken all of the enjoyment out of watching this channel. The only channels that don't make you want to smash the screen are Natural Geographic, Science Channel, TLC... all of which except NGC are run by Discovery I think...

Who ruined Channel 126?      I am so !@#$%^&* disgusted--from nothing to Chuck Norris and that stupid Gecko.   Mac

Unfortunately it would be the History channel that is putting those god awful annoying ads on the Military History channel. They are in the process of ruining a GREAT channel. Do not blame Verizon for that. Now I do blame Verizon for the 3 scam commercials they keep running over and over and over and over and over, the half naked girl touting scam on-line schools, the invention commercial that does nothing but take your money and the unbelievably deceptive Grow Up plan (babies DO NOT NEED Life Insurance), the way that is marketed is so deceptive it is not funny.
