How come WOW CABLE refuse to offer their service anywhere that has a large black/African American population or anywhere that has a large Hispanic/Latino population.

WOW CABLE is currently not available at my house in Inkster, Michigan near DETROIT because WOW CABLE refuse to offer there service anywhere that has a large black/African American population or anywhere that has a large Hispanic/Latino population.

WOW! (formerly WideOpenWest), is the 15th largest cable provider in the United States. It has been given accolades by Consumer Reports as the top Television and internet provider in its 2009 telecom survey.

The Telecommunications Act of 1996 gave way for more competition to enter the cable TV market. Encouraged by this law a number of investors, led by local telephone companies, established competitive broadcast cable services in markets across the country. These entities became known in the industry as 'cable overbuilders,' meaning they would build new cable infrastructure into areas where there were existing cable systems.

WOW! was founded in November 1999 in Denver, Colorado. After completing a network build in April 2001, WOW! initially served about 200 people in the Denver area. In November 2001, Americast, an overbuild system in the Midwest built and operated by Ameritech New Media, Inc., was purchased by WOW! for an undisclosed amount per subscriber, estimated to have been at a cost of $1,000 per sub. This purchase opened WOW! to over 310,000 new customers in metropolitan areas surrounding the cities of Chicago, Cleveland, Columbus, Detroit, Denver, and Evansville. WOW! no longer serves the Denver market.

In April 2012, WOW! purchased Knology, a broadband company, operating in 13 markets. With the merger the combined customer total will be over 800,000.

WOW! is privately owned with Avista Capital Partners having a majority stake.

WOW CABLE refuse to offer their service to black people and Mexicans. :-(
WOW Detroit - Cable (Plymouth) - **** them that cable provider don't like black people. The NAACP needs to know about WOW CABLE.

Answer
Most cable companies are franchised & only allowed to service specific areas.
Your local govt. decided on which cable franchise would service which areas to allow free competition or better yet not have one company better known as a monopoly.

Why do the Samsung LED TVs have such a limited viewing angle as far as contrast goes?

OKwithme

Is there any way to fix the fact that the image looks washed out when you step to the sides or on top of the TV?

Answer
Limited viewing angle is one of the main problems with Liquid Crystal Display (LCD) type HDTV's (and LCD's in general - even computer monitors). It is one of the reasons why I bought a plasma display instead of LCD. You can't do anything about it except possibly angle the set for the best possible display for the majority of the area. Nothing you do will be more than a compromise though.

Here is an article from Consumer Reports about LCD viewing angles...
