I agree that actions (particularly actions involving money) speak
much louder than words, although words probably won't hurt either,
from us as hopsital nurses and LCs as well as consumers. I assume
that this channel is available at home too.)

It seems unlikely to me that non-baby friendly hospitals will
cancel their subscription for this in large numbers, but a few might.
Worth looking into. We can start with Lactnetters who work in
hospitals with this channel.

How many baby friendly hospitals are there in the US and how
many of them get this station? This is clearly a violation of
the Code and BFHI. Can we contact all the baby friendly hospitals
and notify them of this problem. What about Canada. Is this station
broadcast in Canada as well?
