Armstrong Cable - Republican Propaganda Machine?

As a loyal Armstrong cable and internet subscriber, I have
always noticed through the years a conservative slant at their homepage. It doesn’t frustrate me that much, because I don’t have to use their homepage. However, Armstrong cable has recently offered a free documentary (Obama 2016) that has been called ‘subjective and a logical stretch at best’ and free ad time to a Republican Super PAC. Is this what we expect from our cable provider? Should the people that control the information that you receive be able to use it as a propaganda machine?

We encourage you to call Armstrong Cable and ask why they felt it was okay to offer $1.3 million in free ad time to Karl Rove’s American Crossroads PAC. 1-877-277-5711

Here is some more information about Armstrong’s Republican connections:
