Suspended local Fox stations

I am very disappointed in DirectTV for suspending local Fox stations.  I understand DirecTV is misleading their customers saying it's Mission Broadcasting's fault, but it sounds like it's DirecTV just being greedy and using leverage based on suspending the channels during MLB playoffs, NCAA football and NFL seasons.  I pay alot for the NFL package and this will be the 2nd week in a row I can't watch the Broncos game because it's on local Fox that DirecTV suspended.  Of course when I try to watch it on the NFL package, it's blacked out because I have local coverage.  Thanks DirecTV for nothing!!  Will be looking into another carrier!!!

How is DirecTV being greedy when local station owners continue to demand more and more money to carry their FREE over-the-air stations???

Do some research to learn the facts about how much money these owners make from the fees that we pay for these channels.  This video does a great job explaining the situation ....

Oh, and changing carriers won't help. They all suffer from this crazy situation. For some reason, the FCC and Congress don't want to fix it. Wonder where the money is going???

Your local Fox station removed their feed to DTV.
