Hello, we understand this situation is frustrating. We remain at the negotiation table trying to protect you from unwarranted price increases, while Nexstar continues to hold your local news and sports hostage to secure double the rates. Please visit TVPromise.com to stay up to date.

If only the government would get involved.  Several years ago the FCC and Congress were considering changing rules to allow providers like DirecTV to carry a distant channel when local channel owners pulled these greedy money-grabbing negotiation tactics. But nothing happened. So the greedy corporations that own your local stations have all the negotiation power. They can pull their signals whenever they want to demand more of our subscriber $$$. Something needs to change. It's killing the satellite/cable market.
