Share via

Jones Intercable viewers will have a second chance to watch President Clinton’s address on health care reform after a power outage interrupted cable service during the live broadcast.

The cable company, which provides service to about 68,000 Antelope Valley households, had a major electrical problem during Clinton’s address Wednesday night. The cable system went down intermittently between 5:55 p.m., just five minutes before the President’s speech began, and 6:35 p.m. All Jones Intercable customers in the Antelope Valley were affected.

Clinton’s address can be seen in its entirety on Sunday beginning at 11 a.m. on C-SPAN, Channel 20, and Jones’ preview station, Channel 10.
