I understand that, Mom.
Well, my sweet little boy (whom Mommy loves, ohhh so much) it's like this: I do not know precisely how an entity negotiates the placement of an ad on stations carried by Comcast, including on local TV news stations. However, few want those ads only appearing on KRUD or WASP. Whether those local networks -- to the extent they are carried by Comcast rather than rabbit ears -- may accept all local ads they wish, I do not know. But most regional advertisers want some of the slots on the high-attraction cable channels, such as Fox, CNN, A&E, ESPN, The History Channel & etc. Yet, if Comcast says no, then that is that.
Hugs and kisses,
Ma
