Next Carriage Dispute Tribune Vs. DirecTV

MarcB said:
There is a carriage dispute between Tribune and DirecTV. If they do not resolve the issue FOX 61 and WCCT-TV will be dropped from DirecTV on April 1st. This will mean the loss of American Idol, NASCAR, MLB Baseball, and NY Mets Baseball.

Yawn...
 
We can do without American Idol, thank you. Just tell them they can use a little device called an ANTENNA. ;)

With just 70 minutes to go until Midnite it seems more and more likely FOX 61 and WCCT-TV will be dropped from DirecTV. They've already mentioned it on their Facebook pages. This also affects cable network WGN-America.

Excellent, its time that DirecTV sent a firm message to broadcasters like this. I guess WPIX and WTIC and WCCT will have to come crawling back under must-carry, in 3 years.

3 Years???

There's probably another way back, but yes... the must carry cycle is 3 years and we just had one.
