Dear Discovery Channel,
I dont want to hurt you but I dont know any other way to put this; we are over. I dont want us to be, we have had too many good times together and you are rally wonderful most of the time. But as of late your few negative behaviors are just too great, I simply can not take this anymore, I am sorry it has to end this way, but it does.
Always your friend but no longer your lover,
DUG
Yep, you read that right. I am DONE with the discovery channel. No more, no matter how good their programming is for the most part I simply will not watch it anymore. They really upset me when they cashed in on the death of Indian Larry during one of the Biker Buildoff shows. I almost ended it there but all of the good things Discovery had to offer kept me around.
But after the add I saw this morning while learning about price fixing in the diamond industry I simply can not take it any more.
Discovery is planning a dramatization of the events that took place on flight 93 Sept.-11-2001. OK, I am sorry but that is BULLSHIT. People died there, have some fucking respect. Not only for the lives lost on flight 93 but for all of the lives lost on 9-11-01 in general. Why should the people on the plane get a made for TV movie about their possible actions on the flight and not the firefighters that we know how they lost their life. Never mind the explotative nature of the whole thing. Am I the only sane person left on earth? Does no one see how fucking tacky this is or am I just insane?
It is a bullshit move to cash in on a tragic event in our history and I refuse to view a channel that thinks this is OK.
