The solution isn't to get DTV to carry Newsmax again, but to sever any business relationship with Directv and AT&T.

Why is government wasting our time and money talking about this.

[Charles-ixjc]

Boycott these companies. Cancel your subscriptions

If Newsmax wasn't making money from direct TV and at&t they might have some rationale. But they are. So they choosing.to do this because of polotical reasons, not.business reasons.
