...then, Mr. Schwaber must also object to general American coverage of the Palestinian uprising. This would not be altogether surprising for it seems that Mr. Schwaber objects to any criticism of Israel whatsoever.

But at least one, WOFL in Orlando, plans to come back on board when the lineup is revamped next month. Still, the affiliate roster remains Fox's biggest handicap. Many Fox stations are weak UHF outlets that are at a severe disadvantage vis-a-vis their network rivals. "Like any distributor, we have to rely on our retailers," says Fox Broadcasting President Jamie Kellner. "In many cases we're starting with the newest retailer in town...
