I wonder how the advertisers feel about the CBS blackout. Finger pointing an everyone loses. Watching my CBS shows on the Internet.

I had been seeing the banner on my screen for a while. I was wondering if anyone in the forum was going to say anything. I don't have DTV but watch OTA.

The dispute is with Cordillera Communications, a small local tv company that runs 10 stations in smaller DMAs.

The issue in Montana is they own ALL the CBS stations except KXGN Glendive

This dispute has blacked out the NBC station (KOAA) in Colorado Springs and most of Southern Colorado. By the way, many people don't realize what a large DMA exists in Southern Colorado. Colorado Springs alone has a larger population than Pittsburgh, Cincinnati, or Cleveland.
