Nexstar's Sidecar Goes Dark in DirecTV

Mission Broadcasting the sidecar of Nexstar, operates 25 network affiliates in Texas, Oklahoma, Colorado, Indiana, New York, along with other states, has been pulled from the DirecTV and the U-verse TV platforms.

It is another retrans pissing match where Nexstar is demanding more money per subscriber from a TV provider.

While they are not offering the viewer anything more, Nexstar feels the viewer should pay more to be able to watch their stations, which are packed with political advertisements.

In the end, both sides will settle, the details of the agreement will not be announced and if you are a DirecTV customer you will see your bill increase yet again.
