Megatron81 256 Posted January 13 Share Posted January 13 I don't see the GOP controlled FCC will go through that Nexstar has to sell WPIX or they buy it outright maybe since the rules will be relaxed maybe Nexstar will own WPIX outright. Yup, The CW app is free. Altice is different name but can't get rid of the Cablevision smell out of it LOL. I feel that Nexstar & Altice will come to an agreement in the next few months in my opinion than they will with MSG RSN. 1 Link to comment https://localnewstalk.net/topic/15949-retransmission-consent-squabbles/page/31/#findComment-302717 Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's a big if. It didn't happen under the last GOP controlled Pai FCC. Who knows how long it will take to add a GOP member, right now it will be 2-2.

NowBergen 679 Posted January 18 Share Posted January 18 Evidently Altice USA and Nexstar have come to an agreement. Both Mission owned WPIX and Nexstar's NewsNation are back on Optimum systems. No notification from Optimum to their customers of course.

tyrannical bastard 3933 Posted February 15 Share Posted February 15 Google has always been a good "cable" operator. They told Diamond to take a hike with their RSNs and have had relatively few disruptions. The only notable one I can recall was the Disney one in 2021 that took down their channels for a day or two. 1 1 Link to comment https://localnewstalk.net/topic/15949-retransmission-consent-squabbles/page/31/#findComment-303674 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not missed by me, like the RSNs. Let the sports fans pay for their own games. 2 Link to comment https://localnewstalk.net/topic/15949-retransmission-consent-squabbles/page/31/#findComment-303679 Share on other sites More sharing options...
