Don't They Already Have FOX?

In the I-can't-believe-I-just-read-that category:

Time Warner Cable announced today it will begin rolling out the Pentagon Channel, the Defense Department's news and information network for the military, this month. The Pentagon Channel, which previously existed as an information channel within the Pentagon and on military bases, will now be distributed 24 hours a day, seven days a week to all of Time Warner Cable's digital television customers.

I wonder if this is the American Forces Radio and Television Service, expanded. AlterNet suggests the channel might provide military families separated from loved ones a "Rumsfeldian haiku to ease the pain." (Hmmm, a new communication tactic: Soldiers in Najaf/ Fighting the Mehdi Army/ It will make us safe.) I guess it kind of makes sense... We are the COPS of the world, after all. Do you think the channel will carry Rush Limbaugh?
