That's because your local San Diego ABC channel is not owned and operated by Disney.
Yes, it is Clear Channel another crooked organization But I thought sense it was ABC content. Interesting!
Clear Channel has their own carriage contract with Dish that is not controlled by Disney.
ABC still on where I live but no ESPN which means I missed F1 qualifying last night, the race tomorrow + college football. I sure Xfinity would hurry up and install fiber they promised so I can go to streaming and not have to put up with these surprise random channel take downs from DISH.
Dish, it's been a good run of 20 plus years...since the first year you started service. However the time to end our relationship has come. I am tired of all of the inconveniences to me, the more than twice the amount of money I spend on you vs all my other streaming services, the constant freezes from the joeys I have and the DVR linkage forcing reboots when I fast forward. I will miss the ease of use, and the DVR storage of programs for years and years that I don't have to get rid of, or just have disappear.
To be clear Dish, it's you, not me, that is ending our relationship. I am just tired and I don't see you changing no matter how many times I ask you to. Today was the final straw. I am packing my bags and will be gone by Monday.

I am in the Philadelphia market and ABC6 was pulled as well. Guessing all the ABC O&O stations are pulled (NYC, LA, etc.)
The main reason I’ve stayed with Dish for some many years is the DVR. I watch a LOT of tv and the Hopper has been awesome. Plus I’ve been with them for so long I have all the channel numbers memorized that I watch. And I can maneuver the remote without ever looking at it.
But I invested in a good quality 4K tv this year and I’m really liking the picture quality of the streaming services. My only concern with the streaming services is the DVR. I realize YTTV has unlimited DVR. But I’m not sure I like the fact that shows expire after 9 months. Most shows I record are watched within a week or two. But I like being able to keep any particular show I want on the DVR for as long as I want to. So I guess I have some deciding to do.

Same on the F1. I did find this but not affordable for me!
Stream Formula 1 live | F1 TV
Watch all F1 sessions live with F1 TV. See more of the drivers with the 20 onboard cameras, live team radios and exclusive live timing.

Setup a media center and record it yourself thru your own DVR. Most of those shows if not all are also available for a very long time thru the source site like cbs etc..and of course other sources if you look around. I have ways to watch every macgyver ep, a-team etc lol
ESPN+ let me login with Dish Network`Same on the F1. I did find this but not affordable for me!

Yep, then you can put up with these random take downs on your streaming provide. Like the Disney take down on YTTV last year.
I don’t believe any linear service should pay a penny more for these packages. All these providers have launched steaming and hurt their linear partners. I hope Disney chokes on it. I’m going to stick with Dish on this one.
Well YTTV may not be a good option for me after all. I just noticed you can’t fast forward through the commercials on DVR’d shows. After having a Dish DVR for so many years there’s no way I can start watching commercials now.
Dish is going to go bankrupt. Switch to a better provider.
This is without question the most expensive programming package in the industry and responsible for where pricing on traditional TV services has landed. There are plenty of other places to view similar content, they can keep these crap channels.
