Woman says hay feeders stolen from her property

TAHLEQUAH — Cherokee County sheriff’s deputies spoke to a woman Saturday who said she caught someone stealing hay feeders from her property.

Davis told deputies she thought someone had stolen a purse, so she threw the rocks, but she later found the purse at her home. She was arrested for vandalism and transported to jail, deputies said.

What do you think of Sen. McCain's proposal to allow cable TV channels to be sold a la carte (individually, rather than in bundles with a lot of channels no one wants)? Bear in mind some less popular channels could go by the wayside with no bundling support, and that while overall packages should theoretically decrease in cost, individual channels might cost more.

Strongly in favor of a la carte.
Somewhat in favor of a la carte.
