My fellow Philadelphians!

Liberty is defined as the condition of being free from strict control. However the city that houses the Liberty Bell has had its liberties restricted when it comes to Television Choice.

There is a revolution upon us and it is taking place on a piece of glass the size of a single strand of human hair. It is time that we stand up to the monopolies that dominate our choice for quality Television Service!

Thursday, November 12th, Verizon asked the City Council of Philadelphia to approve a 15 year video franchise agreement, allowing it to offer FiOS TV in the city.Councilman Darrell Clarke introduced an ordinance to give Verizon the right to run a cable TV service, a measure the council is expected to vote on by the end of the year.

Verizon says it could start offering FiOS TV in the first year after the deal is made.

The deal would bring in much needed revenue for the city of Philadelphia, and provide jobs in the city as well. The franchise agreement before the City Council calls for Verizon to provide and support up to 15 public, educational and governmental channels, pay the city 5 percent of cable TV revenue in franchise fees, operate four local service centers and agree to certain customer service provisions.
