Fox Affiliate in Central Arkansas

What is the status of negotiations to get the Fox affiliate in Central Arkansas back online?  The lack of programming has gone on way too long.  The Cowboys-Giants game drew a record number of viewers and it was unavailable in Little Rock.

No one here would know. This is only a subscriber based forum. No one has knowledge of their plans.

Thanks.  I’m new to the Forum and assumed it’s like the Apple Forum which is monitored by company representatives.

You can try support (listed in my footnote below) or Twitter and Facebook. I doubt that they have any ideas on future plans.

They are in negotiations with Mission Broadcasting that owns the local affiliate.  It went off the air several months ago when negotiations broke down. I enjoy DirecTv Streaming but I may have to switch providers.  It’s gone on too long.

We have been without Fox for almost four years. When is this negotiations going to end so we can see Nascar Racing????

...no one here would know. This is just an open community forum. Suggest you check out the TV Promise website for any updates in your area, located here

@Want_Our_Channel_Back 

Since it has been almost 4 years already, the simple answer is never. At this point something drastic would have to change with either the TV provider or channel owner, or possibly the industry as a whole.

Accept that both have gone their separate ways. Either plug in a regular antenna or find another provider that currently has that local for you. If they ever get an agreement again you could see about switching back at that time. I just wouldn't hold your breath.
