Awesome." You can say that again! I can't wait to listen to those Bhangra beats and dance the night away while dreaming of those beautiful Bollywood babes. Fagstein, you should come over to my place so we can dance and dream together. "Another new channel is Music India 2, which will feature Hindi-language music videos. Awesome."

After they squander that money away, they'll beg for something else, like tax breaks. It was their poor business practices that got them into this mess into the first place. If CTV really thought about the viewers, they would not have bought the rights to the HNIC theme from the CBC, and if Global thought about the viewers, they would have dedicated less money towards their speciality channels and more towards their failing OTA stations!!! Their poor decisions have gotten them into this mess, so quit asking for bailouts, and just go away already. We can watch what we want on US networks anyways without your repackaged material.
