I don't of any such policy. But I do remember that my cable internet line did carry TV, even though I don't pay for that. I was getting a channel that carried the NBA, so TNT and/or TBS for a week or two before that shut off. But I do think the local channels still worked. I have an antenna in the attic for OTA, and HD OTA was dramatically better than cable, so I hooked it and haven't tried again in a year or two.
