    Yeah but the original point of the pbc was to attract new fans, especially young ones.

        How is watching Fox on cable free?

                Good for you that you like millions upon millions of fans pays for cable.

                That still is irrelevant to FOX being a free channel independent of one having cable.

                  from what I saw they were not here to take over but to provide competition and attract new fans

                      if someone gives me a free donut, and i decide to go buy a dozen donuts, it doesn't change the fact that somebody gave me a free donut.
