Default Bay Area TV Coverage of Indian Wells
Can anyone please tell me a useful way to lodge a complaint? This is just incredible. They're not even showing the semifinals. I mean, what is this tournament doing contracting with them if they aren't going to show the matches? What is going on?

Would love some ideas here.
Kevin

Filing a complaint is a great idea. I have no clue how to do it, though.

Pattyfan, I share your pain. I went looking for CSN+ last night (kind of like ESPN alternate). I finally found it just now, on channel 410, not 400 like my guide says.

So if you have a bunch of digital channels, it may be worth hunting through them.

Stupid Sharks and Warriors.

Ms. MBA here. It's hockey and basketball season and those sports bring in more local and national ad revenue than tennis I'm afraid. It's all about the benjamins peeps. So how long is FSN's contract with BNPPO@IWTG? I hope this is the last year.

And apparently college baseball? I've had FSN not show a couple of blocks of tennis in favor of college baseball, including Roddick vs. Djokovic

Me too. Last year the TDs said FSN was offering more coverage than ESPN. Also, ESPN wanted to tape delay the broadcast as they were going for the Slams

You are not alone Pattyfan. In Dallas, I have no coverage the final weekend (except 1:00 AM!) for the second year in a row. I simply left the house and went to the movies. What's the point of staring at a scoreboard during the final weekend of what is supposed to be an important event? I'll leave the house tomorrow too. By the way, I have 5 Fox Sports channels too, but the others won't pick up the coverage when the main can't cover it. Here in Dallas, that main channel also has to cover the Stars (today) and the Rangers (tomorrow). So, I will never see the final weekend of IW unless Fox loses its rights. It's a shame paying attention to it all the way to this point and then be denied the coverage.
