Who reads Newsday anyway? Glad Rupert Murdoch pulled from that deal. That newspaper is like the local paper of Long Island. Their readership isn't as vast as the NYTimes, Wall Street Journal, AM and Metro NY... Cablevision, you can have NewsDay.
I have to say, I hate this company (Cablevision). Their cable service is lousy and they have run MSG into the ground, they will probably run Radio City into the ground. Jim Dolan is a psycho (I know this from having been involved in collective bargaining with him). Check out what happens to those prices for their 3 services once the introductory rate expires. Also, they don't tell you that that $29.99 rate is for the most basic cable.
