tyrannical bastard 3933 Posted December 14, 2022 Share Posted December 14, 2022 Some markets are more affected than others, I wonder if Nexstar/Mission is even aware in the possible instance if they choose to run one of these ads in a market where Comcast/Xfinity does not provide service.

nathannah 2402 Posted December 15, 2022 Share Posted December 15, 2022 (edited) 6 hours ago, TennTV1983 said: Ads have already started running in affected markets with a Nexstar-owned CBS station: If this is the kind of 'acting' we can expect of programming on the Nexstar-era CW it's safe to say that trophy shelf builders won't be needed at Perry's golf mansion. Most station groups have basic knowledge of what providers exist in a certain area so you don't get embarrassing situations like this ad airing on WFRV, where one Comcast system exists in the entire state of Wisconsin, or KTVI/KPLR, in Spectrum's home city. Comcast customers get Peacock free with local stations $5 extra, so this is becoming a problem easily solved by the consumer, and Comcast is still getting paid; they could also just presumably pipe in a distant NBC/TMD owned station the same way Time Warner did to Nexstar during a Hearst dispute and if Congress somehow whines, takes the fine as 'putting the customer first'. Same with Paramount+. And the CW is in its holiday dead period so nobody's going to care if they miss Riverdale.

Megatron81 256 Posted December 19, 2022 Share Posted December 19, 2022 Never seen a TV station group tell them to demand a rebate when TV stations go dark with insert Pay-TV provider like Nexstar did with Comcast before they got a new deal.

They killed the golden goose and are now in the process of killing the bronze goose. I'm not paying your stinking retransmission fees. If the online providers start with that garbage, I'm dropping them too, just like I dropped the cable company. And if they figure out a way to make me pay over the air using ATSC 3.0, I can live without TV. 2 Link to comment https://localnewstalk.net/topic/15949-retransmission-consent-squabbles/page/26/#findComment-284197 Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't care who's fault it is, I care about the damage to my wallet. I dropped cable when retrain and sports fees got tacked on to the bottom of the bill to the tune of $30. My cable and internet bill was roughly $165 and that was 2 years ago. I got rid of the cable and just do internet now and I'm perfectly happy with it. In fact, at the time, the cable company was encouraging us to do this so that they didn't have to fool around with these wars with the TV providers anymore either. 1 Link to comment https://localnewstalk.net/topic/15949-retransmission-consent-squabbles/page/26/#findComment-284206 Share on other sites More sharing options...
T.L. Hughes 881 Posted March 14, 2023 Share Posted March 14, 2023 (edited) DirecTV is suing Nexstar, along with Mission Broadcasting and White Knight Broadcasting, over the carriage dispute with the two sidecars that has been going on since last October, accusing the companies of price fixing and “engaging in an illegal conspiracy” to manipulate negotiations on retrans fee rates through Nexstar’s SSA/JSAs with the Mission and White Knight stations.

VHSgoodiesWA 303 Posted July 3, 2023 Share Posted July 3, 2023 This affects markets small and large across the United States. WPIX dropped in NYC, KTLA in Los Angeles, all networks missing in Topeka except WIBW-13. Only ABC and CBS remain in Little Rock. ABC and CW dropped in the entire state of Utah. CBS gone from the entire state of South Dakota and North Dakota (minus Fargo). And of course, WGN gone.

NowBergen 679 Posted July 3, 2023 Share Posted July 3, 2023 It shows what a scam Nexstar and Mission are. In some areas the Mission stations were off of Dish, but now that Nexstar is off DirecTV, they are too. Which is it? They want their cake and eat it too. What a scam. 1 Link to comment https://localnewstalk.net/topic/15949-retransmission-consent-squabbles/page/26/#findComment-288045 Share on other sites More sharing options...
tyrannical bastard 3933 Posted July 3, 2023 Share Posted July 3, 2023 I wonder if this was the same agreement from the last time Nexstar pulled their stations from DirecTV. If that's the case, then it's going to get ugly EVERY time the agreement is up.

If every Nexstar station was dropped, NewsNation would be dropped as well. It's still apart of Dish's lineup, the last general dispute with Nexstar and Dish was in late 2020 and was resolved in a month.

Because of this, in the few markets where both groups have stations, Dish customers now don’t have access to Nexstar and Hearst stations, given the provider’s ongoing dispute with Nexstar. (For example, in the Oklahoma City DMA, that means Dish customers don’t have access to programming from two major networks and one mid-major network as Nexstar owns KFOR [NBC] and KAUT [CW], and Hearst owns KOCO [ABC]. God forbid Sinclair and Griffin get into retrans disputes with Dish.) Edited September 8, 2023 by T.L.
