Poor management decision

I am absolutely baffled Comcast would jeopardize customer loyalty in today’s world of streaming options. The decision to cut a major network plus several other stations rather than eat the cost to keep their customers seems like a very poor financial decision. 
I have been told twice that it would be “3 or 4 more days” for Scripps channels to be restored over the last 3 weeks. 
I honestly do not want to have to switch to streaming services but maybe it is time to do so. 
Once I purchase fire sticks and other devices, I will never return to Comcast for cable. I am certain I am not alone in this stance. 
This is what happens when executives are greedy and ignore the retainment of their customers.
