Why shouldn't they be allowed to act strategically for a profit? Do you see NBC letting other networks broadcast the Olympics? No. Companies pay for the rights on an open market.
As I said in another thread, you'd think LetsRunner trumpkins would have an appreciation of this.
This is what bothers me. When they started, Flotrack was always upset when NBC wouldn't allow them to film at races they had rights to, claiming they were behind the times not to allow new media to broadcast. Now they're doing the same thing. They claimed to be a "grassroots movement" against the man and even changed their URL from .com to .org because of that mission.
