cable company greed
Can't believe in my area 4 stations will go off the air,cause cable bought them out.They want you to be wired,or have a sat supplier..
I look for this to happen nationwide soon,probably radio too.

They don't care about you, they care about "shareholder value".

Not an answer to why your local stations will cease to exist, but if enough people demand they be included in their bundle they may survive. You also need to look at the state of the news paper industry. |

Careful with the $49 deals. They generally end up as $150 deals.

I can't believe anybody still watches cable TV.

I stream for 35 bucks a month and get all the same channels. Haven't really had a reason to look back.

I get all the stations I like on Playstation Vue. Streaming at 35/month. Dumped DTV over a year ago. I still get weekly junk mail from them offering me a 40 dollar a month discount off any plan for life and a 200 dollar gift card.
