Totally agree. If you don’t like a station, don’t watch it. There are many stations I do not like or agree with, but I don’t suggest that Verizon remove them. I’ll be following this and hope that an agreement can be reached in the future. Right now, I am very disappointed in Verizon.

The whole question of ratings really makes you wonder why some stations remain and others get dropped. I would hate to think this is a political move on the part of Verizon.

Verizon has become so powerful that it can afford to lose customers they don’t agree with or care about.

Verizon, if you’re going to remove channels I watch without compensation, how about reimbursing me the cost for streaming OANN?

I think the motivation behind Verizon is that they know they have the leverage.

I watched the interview with Robert Herring who offered both channels for free, but Verizon declined. So why would Verizon do that? Is it fear of funding loss from the FCC? IDK, but could Herring have given a better offer to Verizon? SMH

Verizon was able to negotiate an agreement with Fox News and Newsmax.
But regarding OANN, this statement was released by Verizon. “… These negotiations were focused on economics, as they always are, but OAN failed to agree to fair terms," Verizon said in a statement provided to Ars last night.“
If Robert Herring offered both OANN and AWE for free, where is the lack of “fair terms”? It appears that Robert Herring was very generous, and Verizon was going to drop them no matter what. Verizon could clarify this if they wanted to, rather than putting out a canned statement.

I know exactly how you feel.
I don’t normally go on the Verizon forums, but reading this thread has been such an eye-opener. I don’t know why I’m surprised that Verizon has caved, like so many other corporations. I am so disappointed in them.

It's censorship pure and simple.
