...including WTHR here in Indianapolis. The usual blame game flying back and forth. And as usual, in the end the customers will pay more to watch "free" TV.

Nearly 3 million customers in 53 Dish markets are affected.

Are you losing your METV affiliate?

No, thank goodness! If I had Dish I would have, assuming they carry MeTV for WTHR here.

I'm on Comcast, and they never seem to get into these fights. They just keep jacking up the rates.

It's a local channel, like Fox. The number will depend on your area.
