[Swprograms] On WRN Sirius 140 Tonight!

[John Figliozzi <jfiglio1@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Sirius is running audio tape of television coverage of a ski race  
from December instead of regular World Radio Network programming  
tonight.  This has prompted a little sarcasm mixed with the  
frustration and disappointment that has recently characterized the  
satellite radio sounding board discussions online.  Here's a typical  
comment:

"I agree with everyone here. It's bad enough that now WRN is being  
preempted for live sports, but for skiing from December? Smart move  
Siruis, that's sure to bring the subscribers rolling in! What's next,  
horseshoes from the Iowa State Fair in 1987? I could live with WRN  
being replaced occasionally for sports but it's apparent by the  
sports listings that channel 140 is going to be preempted every night  
as well as on the weekends. Not only that, but prepare to lose 10 non- 
music channels everytime there is a NASCAR race. Can't wait until the  
NFL starts up again - between football and Nascar there won't be a  
single non-music channel left on Sundays. I just voiced my complaints  
to Sirius and I hope everyone who's upset does the same. If enough  
people complain maybe something will happen (I know it's a longshot).  
Now if you'll all excuse me I've got to get back to channel 140 -  
there's a chicken tossing contest starting!"
