I'm Sfaying At A Hotel In The Middle Of Wisconsin &.....


the cable TV channels they offer for cable news is only Fox & CNN. No MSNBC. Hmmmm..... I wonder why?

This primitive should be more concerned with taking a complimentary shower than worrying about what's on TV

you do have in door plumbing don't you?
Exactly. Most primitives normally have to utilize the privacy behind the gas station to do their business.

3. Do you want news or to complain about the amenities?


Because if you want news, you obviously have a computer.

But to answer your question, while we would like to think the hotel management blocked it because of their deep involvement in the the vast right wing conspiracy, it is probably much more likely that the particular feed they are buying doesn't have it. Maybe they found not enough people watched it--or other pieces of that package--to make it worth paying for. Hotel chains, like the rest of us, get their cable content in packages.
 
Generally I treat hotel TV the same way as the bible in the nightstand...I don't look at it.
Woops...the truth must've slipped out by accident.

5. That happened to my family many years ago.

We were at a convention and the hotel only offered Fox and CNN. We complained to the front desk and then checked out and went next door. It was a nicer place and cheaper, too.

And the hotel staff said; "thank God those ******* whiners are gone"

and the hotel maids said;  "what a bunch of *******pigs".

Why on earth would this DUmmie think someone had plumbing in a door?  That's just ridiculous.

It's great when someone mocks the DUmmies and they don't realize it.

So a convention in town and you were able to just pick up and leave to another hotel next door without a reservation? Me thinks this is a bouncy!

11. get out of that state as fast as you can!

They will try to keep you!

They have weird ways you don't want to know about!

Certainly not because of the hygene or pleasant company.

Same here, that line was a dead giveaway.
