I kinda have to agree with him to an extent. How many "buy this crap even though you don't need it and will go broke paying for it all" home shopping channels are on most cable networks? How many Literacy Channel type channels have been kicked off to make room for them? How much crap is on TLC or Discovery as compared to when they first started broadcasting?
