DISH Network may drop multiple local stations, including news and sports channels, starting March 10 unless new deals are made.

DISH Network may remove multiple local stations—including WIBW-TV, KOLO, KOLN, ABC7 WWSB-TV, KAIT, KWCH 12, WDAM, WFLX Fox 29, WTOC, WLOX, KSLA, and KCBD—from its service starting Tuesday, March 10, unless new carriage agreements are reached. The potential blackouts could cut off access to local news, network programming, and sports for DISH customers. Viewers are urged to contact DISH at 800-333-3474 to advocate for continued access. Alternative viewing options include DIRECTV, local cable providers, streaming services like YouTube TV, Hulu Live, and Fubo, over-the-air broadcasts with a TV antenna, and free station apps on Android, Roku, Fire, and Apple TV.
