What's revisionist is that when they came out with cable in the early 80s, they told us there wouldn't be commercials because there would be a monthly fee instead.

I was young in the 80s.
But the only channels I know without commercials were premium channels (HBO/Disney). M/TV, ESPN, CNN, etc.. all had commercials.

You aren't remembering things very well.
And if you are watching everything on an antenna, then quit your bitching about commercials. You aren't paying a thing for the programming anyway.
