Conspiracy theorists-- I need your help.

I'm watching Dogma on Comedy Central, and every 20-30 minutes an alert goes across the screen that starts "Attention: dish network threatens to ban..." and then a black bar comes up and blocks out the rest of the message. Is it a legitimate alert and it's being blocked out because I don't really have their service (I have cable through the campus system)? Or is dish network doing something uncool (like... not allowing moveon.org ads) and they don't want the alerts to be seen by their customers??

Update: I got more of a sample this time: "attention something/Dish network subscribers: dish network has threatened to take away the following channels:..." and then it's cut off. This makes it more likely that it's just being blocked because it doesn't affect me, but... the wording is weird. Are they taking away Al Jazeera (sp?) or something? that's the only controversial channel I can think of.

Update2: They were a little slow with the black bar on MTV-- they're taking away BET and Nickelodeon. Awwww naw, no one denies me my morning SpongeBob!!

Remember the punk kittens?

I've been to the rathergood site many times, but I never saw the resemblance of their work to the Quizno commercials (the weird creature ones that people either love or have nightmares about). Well, guess what- the same folks who bring us Punk Kittens actually make the Quiznos ads (see their FAQs). So, if you like those ads, you can adore their other work. If you hate those ads, maybe they can redeem themselves. Try these on for size:

When biscuits go wrong

fearsome stomping Laibach kittens

And the inspiration for the Quiznos ads: We love the moon
(see? the ad is not so bad compared to the singing in that one)
