Thompson gone from NBC, but not TNT - TV Squad

Thompson gone from NBC, but not TNT - TV Squad:

"Fred Thompson's plans to announce his candidacy for the 2008 presidential race
once again brings up the question of 'equal time' provisions that are in place
to assure a single candidate is not given more airtime on television than anyone
else. Thompson, a Republican and former Tennessee senator, played DA Arthur
Branch on NBC's Law and Order for five seasons. NBC, in keeping with the
provisions, has stopped airing episodes that feature Thompson, but TNT, whose
schedule overflows with Law and Order reruns, will keep airing the Thompson
episodes."

In other words if you really love the basset hounded grumpy DA, you have to watch the show on TNT, or on video, or on the internet at Netflix.
