Dear Editor:
This letter is in regard to just how bad Channel 18, our local cable channel, has become.
When it works (part-time), the information is, many times, out-dated information. Most of its shows are very poor. Every cable user in Brandon Township and the Village of Ortonville pays a monthly fee to support the OTV station, and we are getting cheated. From what I can find out, it just happens that no one is in charge: no local control.
As of April 30, 2009, there was plenty of money to improve it. There was $97,134.34 in the account in the treasurer’s office.
This money was paid by the cable users to give them decent service.
To put it bluntly, our local cable TV channel stinks. Come on, local government, do your job.
