Loss of my local NBC station (KSBY) on Xfinity

I am a  long time Xfinity customer and prefer cable to satellite.  I pay over $300/month for honest cable service because I don't believe in  stealing cable like some people do.  However, the loss of a MAJOR NETWORK like NBC due only to a price dispute IS RIDICULOUS.  IF YOU REALLY THINK YOUR CUSTOMERS WANT TO GIVE UP the NBA Playoffs, the OLYMPICS, and Saturday Night Live (SNL), which I've been watching since its inception in the 70s, YOU'RE CRAZY!  Basic Cable without the 3 MAJOR NETWORKS (CBS, NBC, ABC) is tantamount to trying to sell a hamburger with no meat on the bun!  IF YOU DON'T WANT TO LOSE THOUSANDS OF CUSTOMERS TO SATELLITE OR OTHER CABLE COMPANIES, ETC.,  you'll MAKE THE DEAL and RESTORE NBC ASAP!  I've already missed too many episodes of SNL and sometimes, due to current politics, it's actually politically significant ... the President watches and comments on it!  Besides, I'm sure your company upper management can spare a small hit on their 7 FIGURE SALARIES and eat some of the cost of a SCRIPPS RENEWAL to keep the prices reasonable for their customers - WHO PAY THEIR SALARIES!  So please work this out ASAP ... my wife is already suggesting we not pay the bill until this is resolved.  I don't want to switch, but I will if I can't get AT LEAST THE MINIMUM BASICS of American television.  Thanks for your attention and long standing quality service to date.
