Their website is plastered with TdF ads, it displays a full schedule of
broadcast times and dates, but whenever I try to tune in all I get are
shows full of overweight redneck slobs skulking through the woods
killing anything with more than two legs!

OLN is the sole broadcaster of the TdF daily coverage in the US that I
know of, is anyone else suffering from this unannounced "blackout"?

I watched it live, and caught the finish on a repeat already today.

Umm... it's on its second repeat already. I don't know how many more my
wife's gonna let me watch, but she'd love to see a "blackout."

At least Desperate Housewives is in reruns...

Nope - the Only Lance Network continues to show Pants, Pants and still
more Pants. And a little bit of the current Tour in between. 4 times
a day.

Dumbass is probably tuning into The Outdoor Channel
(http://outdoorchannel.com/) instead of OLN (http://www.olntv.com/).

On Comcast Digital, they're right next to each other in SLC.

This must be something local. Better check with my cable company.

(I wonder if OLN knows they're being censored?

When I tune in I see... the TdF. Must be a local problem.

What's up with that anyway? The guy is RETIRED. I don't give a ****
about his irrelevant opinions, not that he has the capacity to
articulate them anyway. I think a doorstop could give a better
interview. Fortunately, Tivo wipes away all traces, leaving just the
race. Ahhhh, Tivo...
