DENNY'S LOSING CUSTOMERS OVER CABLEVISION DISPUTE

The money battle between Cablevision and News Corp. that started last Friday at midnight is costing Denny's Steak Pub money.
"This is ridiculous!" said Kevin Ryan, owner of Denny's Bar, a family business in Brooklyn's Kensington neighborhood. "I'm relying on people to come in who are Giants fans — and they're walking out, even though I pay for the football package."
He blames his debacle on "typical billionaire behavior, against the small businessman like me; and regular, everyday people get caught in the middle."
Ryan said he expected to lose "a good amount of money over three big events": the Giants' 28-20 win over Detroit and the first two games of baseball's National League Championship Series between San Francisco and Philadelphia.
