Tegna and DISH Fight it Out!!

Tegna (parent company of KTHV/Channel 11/Little Rock) is fighting it out with DISH over a new re-transmission agreement. This spat is effecting over 50 Tegna stations, including KTHV.  Heck with streaming becoming so popular I would've thought these fights would be over by now.  What I always like hearing is how the broadcast companies want to play the victim in all this.  They are the ones demanding MORE money and how they wanna brainwash the cable/satellite customers into thinking the cable/sat providers won't have to pass the increase along to them.  There are soo many options these days to get local news and network programming,  the broadcasters still wanna demand more $$ for the same inferior product.  Increase the quality of the product then maybe it might be worth more!!!
