Did you experience this?

It was election day and I needed a release damnit. So, what does a woman do? Go to the gym right? Well yes. I had abstained from watching the returns all day hoping for the best... So I go to the gym... and truth be told, I never plug in to TV, but I listen to my IPOD... Michael Doughty, Harvey Danger...you know the drill...
I do glance at the talking heads tho and often see at least 1/3 of the TVs on Fox News. Expected... There's CMT, there's local news and of course some god awful Gold's Gym labeled station.
Anyway... I go to the gym hoping to at least divert for a second for a Hannity or Shep update... NO FOX NEWS> NONE>>> NOT ONE TV. Out of like...50...
I asked the guy who took my money happily as I signed up and joined this fascist club,"What gives, where's Fox News???" He rambled on and on about the past owners didn't like it and it was one sided and (they have new owners now...) and he said well you know how one sided FOX is...he then went on to tell me that he has had a tough time finding a teaching job and that he only makes $6. some an hour... and I'm wondering WTF... I said, OK> you mean you can't turn on of these 50 TVs on Fox News?
He asked the woman behind the counter to turn on FOX NEWS. She fumbled around with the remote for 20 minutes...I kid you not... then he took the remote from her and as he attempted to turn FOX news on... and he never did find it...I left in disgust.
Ok... so does anyone know of a campaign from the Dems to do this in business places? This had to be an organized event...I have never seen such arrogance and Naziism...
It's horrible and censorship in my mind. I felt violated and I am not finished yet.
Anyone else have this happen?

I have been to hotels that do not have Fox news. I usually ask now before I commit to stay at a hotel.
