Right. And both the MVPD and channel owner know that the MVPD will get most of the blame from customers, just as his happening here. So logically, it is more advantageous for the channel owner to have the channels removed. I side with logic in saying that chances are it is Fox and Sinclair that had the channels removed.But in the real world, the one who takes the most damage is the provider. The vast majority of viewers only know suddenly the company they pay to watch TV isn't showing them the channels they're paying for. Period. They don't get pissed off at Fox or ABC or the RSN, they get pissed off at the company they just paid their monthly bill to. Their neighbor with (other provider) is watching their shows, but they can't.They do not give a damn about negotiations, they just want to get home from work, eat dinner, and watch TV.
Hey now, no need to bring Apple users into this...Moral of the story, we're all brand loyal and blindly point blame at everyone else.
Funny....all the talking about disputes on Dish & Direct...Just had a scroll startup across the bottom of my local NBC affiliate during the race about a dispute brewing with Spectrum Cable in Charlotte.
In Chicago the nfl moved the Bears game from Fox to CBS
Yes it was flexed. Our local O&O FOX station was not too happy about this move by the NFL but at least Viking fans could see the game until next week if this dispute is not resolved.
Well, not all of us. Competition is usually good. As a customer, I just want my channel back.Moral of the story, we're all brand loyal and blindly point blame at everyone else.
It was flexed, but this was announced when the TV schedules came put months ago. Had nothing to do with this dispute.Yes it was flexed. Our local O&O FOX station was not too happy about this move by the NFL but at least Viking fans could see the game until next week if this dispute is not resolved.
I saw the same scroll on the NBC Portland OR affiliate. Just before that another scroll that said this channel may go dark on Dish in November.Funny....all the talking about disputes on Dish & Direct...Just had a scroll startup across the bottom of my local NBC affiliate during the race about a dispute brewing with Spectrum Cable in Charlotte.
