when you have the ability to command comcast, i think things will look a lot more like that. what i do not necessarily agree with just as a tv watcher, i think people still love discovery. i do not mean just the channel. i think finding it surprises. i think every month or every year i hear about some show that people are suddenly talking about that i could not ever imagine shooting. if you said to me, mike, i want you to choose "honey boo boo" or certain food channel networks. if i had to predetermine, i do not think i would ever choose those. but to stumble on them or go into that environment -- you know, i might like"honey boo boo." i think that is a huge part of the american television experience and i think it gets sold short when we talk about anytime, anywhere, now. americans love being able to just kind of thrown around and find things they did not know were there. >> also joining us with our conversation is lynn stanton. >> talking about discovery, how important a role will social media play in your tv experience going ahead? >> that is a great question. if you think

we need to be competing with a public infrastructure with compast, comcast and at&t and you name it and i urge that we do something in the next year and do a new study around broad band and 110 years ago now. we need. >> >> update it and lay the ground for a communication system in san francisco and if you look at what happens with the public access channel it's obvious that we need it and comcast isn't going to give us the access content and opportunities for the community that we really need so please do. i know you have a long list but please add that to the list. thanks. >> thank you. anyone else? okay. seeing none public comment is closed, so what i would say -- i would direct staff to work with me and drafting a res diewgz that we would bring to the commission at our next meeting that outlines all of these issues and makes some suggestion for how to proceed with respect to them. commissioner avalos. >> yes. i would like to just kind of tap into that process as well. i mean you can take the lead but i want -- >> and in fact i'm -- i know that my staff would appreciate this. i am ha

a black screen that says "your tv is not yet ready for comcast digital network." we got a lot of phone calls and e-mails from customers waiting where their signal went. in order to watch tv, you need a set-top box or digital adapter. here's how to get it. >> they can call us and we'll send them the equipment. or they can visit any of our service centers to pick up the equipment. >> the adapters are free for the first three tv's in your house. after that, comcast charges you. >>> well, this might make you wonder if complaining on yelp is really worth it. one woman is being sued right now and it could cost her a fortune. >> chip reed on the bad reviews that came back to haunt her. >> reporter: a lawyer for jane perez flipped through pictures allegedly showing botched home repairs. the photos include door hinges, trash allegedly left behind and what are said to be strands of hair in a refinished floor. >> i think we presented evidence sufficient to establish that the work was not completed, that he charged for work that had not been done, and that the workmanship was

little bit more alarming right i mean government should talk to big businesses like wal-mart like comcast they're affected by government regulation and certainly they're huge employers in the country but the problem is that they already have so many opportunities to talk to the government anything from political contributions to the fact that one founding member lockheed martin you know they have lucrative government contracts a lot of these presidents and business leaders already speak in front of the house of representatives in the senate with great frequency plus they have huge lobbying arm so you know and then so what we see is that it's a bit alarming that these people have even more of an opportunity to talk to the government even more access to these senior white house officials when that's already kind of the status quo that they already have a lot of open avenues to speak to the government so and in addition you look at something like comcast that's the majority owner of n.b.c. so not only do they have the opportunity to speak to white house officials on a pretty regular basis bu
