Shit’s about to get real now. It’s all well and good when a bunch of college students and soccer moms take to the streets, but when the employees of the planet’s largest media conglomerate all decide to walk out and presumably further lengthen hold times… well, that’s not going to fly. I can only assume that Brian Roberts is one of the 10-12 people on Earth – along with the Koch brothers, Warren Buffet and Steve Harvey – who has the power to make precisely one phone call to remove a world leader from power. Hello, yes, Bahrain? The king is blocking our efforts to pipe in broadband to huts along the Arabian. You know what to do. He might have a tougher time in Soviet America, but enough days of this and the secret cabals are going to start meeting. After all, Roberts has a new building to pay for.
