ABC and Fox Remove Their Programs from DirecTV

[grizpsych]

YouTube TV still has the rights to Fox and ABC. Griz game is showing as playing at 7:00 PM tonight. 21-day trial available.

Awesome. I just bought YouTube premium to watch Cobra Kai. That serious is amazing. :thumb:

Edit: Never mind, they are different services.

Hulu Live has the Great Falls channels (for Havre) and a 1 week free trial. I’ll be watching the Griz using that option tonight. Still BS they wait for football season to air this stuff out.

I have no idea who is being unreasonable, could be both.

However, I'm surprised how many people on here are so quick to blame the local stations for (in their mind) standing up for themselves. Covering the Griz and cat games and programs like they do isn't free for them, they pay for the rights and then pay for the production, travel, etc. They have to make money where they can.

Well, if I were a business paying for their advertising during this game you can be damn sure I’m pulling ads from them. Lay the blame wherever you want. The ads won’t be seen and I can’t watch. Literally can’t if I weren’t going to the game. There is no high speed internet option to stream.

Called Directv. They offered a $10 credit. I offered them pound sand. Cancelled Sunday ticket. Hunting season just got a little better.

Thank God that Dish is not re-dong there contract!

I will be cancelling my direct tv on Monday.

Even though the local channels made the decision ro pull programming, not DirecTV?

Couldn't care less who's fault it is. Griz football is the only reason I have tv. If they can't make that happen screw em.

The timing of this just sucks. I paid twice on Griz all access just to be able to watch it. That portal was all screwed up. Kept telling me that my "user name/email address" were not valid. Took me over an hour to get is straightened out. BAD DAY... ABC/FOX/Cowles Media are to blame. They pull this isht right before a home game. The Cat fans got screwed too.

Well if this isn't the shits... I paid for two subscriptions and still cannot access the game on All Griz Access... WTF :rant:
