Lou from Pueblo West, CO e-mailed me this morning to let me know that Nexstar Broadcasting stations were off of DirecTV and have been since early July.
In Colorado that means FOX21 KXRM & KXTU-LD (CW-SOCO) have been pulled from DirecTV. While Nexstar owns KREX5 (CBS), KFQX FOX4 & KGJT-CD (My Network TV) in Grand Junction, the Grand Junction stations are unaffected because DirecTV doesn't carry local stations in western Colorado.
Here is their report on the blackout.
This is a dispute of course about fees, & Nexstar wanting to be compensated for it's stations, much the same as to why CBS has pulled stations across the country. By the way this dispute and the one by CBS mean a lot of CBS stations across the country are off of AT&T/DirecTV.
I have a counter at the top of the blog going for this dispute as well.
