Al jazeera america at channel 1750 is going to be dropped on december 19 and on december 2 france 24 an international news channel that is all news all the time that is in english that is broadcast from paris france will be added at channel 481 where WRNN is at for people in the new jersey/ new york area. If people want an idea of what france 24 is about you can go to their website to watch a live feed of their channel. Now why verizon chose to even add al jazeera at channel 1750 when it was also made available at channel 114 was a really bizarre move but perhaps there is another international channel that may be added in that area that will be taking its place. For those who do not know verizon is now notifyng people well in advance on a monthly basis what channels are going to be added or dropped. If you were to look at page 3 of the bill that you receive in the mail on the right hand side every month a list of channel changes are provided based on where you live. There is also on the left hand side of that page announcements about price increases that are on the way that all customers are going to be hit with whether they like it or not. Page 3 of the bill is referred to as the "need to know informartion" page. Verizon needs to be careful with their price increases to people'e bills because they do not want to be like the competition who current verizon customers dropped because of constant price increases.
