WishTV and WNDY are pretty much irrelevant in the Indianapolis market. They don’t carry an affiliation with one of the big 4 networks and that is why he was able to purchase them at such a discount once they lost the CBS affiliation. I haven’t even noticed that they have been dropped from my lineup on UVerse honestly.
I can’t get the price I want for my product, so it must be RACISM!! As Rhea points out above, There has been a material change in the product since the last contract. Why was this ignored in the article? Oh, and let Mr, McCoy know my price offer for network TV is also $0
AT&T as a huge company is racist? Good luck proving that and I seriously doubt that’s the real issue here. The problem I have with racial discrimination or racists terms being overused is that it takes away from real racial discrimination and makes people like me more cynical and I don’t want to be like that. It should not be thrown around lightly as a catch all phrase for someone or something you don’t like. Having said that I don’t know the merits of this case, but I have a hard time accepting that AT&T as a company systematically favors white owners over minority ones. The problem here is that this will never make it to court. It will be settled which would bolster AT&T’s claim that this is a negotiating tactic. Mr. McCoy let your case go to court and don’t settle so we can see your convictions.
I had similar thoughts to those of Rhea P. and Chuck W. above, plus one more question: When was the last time there was a program you “just had to” watch on either WISH or WNDY? Or even easier, when was the last time you just watched a program on one of the two channels? It is about the quality of your product Mr. McCoy. We will see what the courts say if you take this suit to the end. A long court battle will do nothing but weaken your bargaining position further, and cost you thousands in legal fees.
It does seem a little fishy the station has a new (Black) owner, and suddenly ATT wants the content for free, when they paid for it for years and years. It might be a hard case to prove, but in the light of everything else, it would not surprise me.
He says free, and ATT says they are offering fair rates. Why don’t they carry all the other local stations like channel 47.1 and all the other sub channels?
This station and its sister station are non relevant and nothing like the past with the Natl affiliation and desire to provide unbiased local coverage…Now very liberal and plus we see now everything is Racist ….Sad Sad..I always thought it was about viewership and advertising $$$. Hope the new owner takes his racist BS to Portland , Seattle or Minneapolis !
