Default Is Direct TV giving people additional channels for free?

Since Christmas I've noticed that Direct TV has been having additional channels that I don't normally get except on free preview weekends and so i'm wondering if people who have Direct TV are getting additional channels for free now?
The channels I get now are the following,
1. El Rey Network
2. Logo
3. Universal Kids
4. BET Her
5. VH1 Classic
6. Discovery Family Channel
Is Direct TV making these channels free now for 2018?

They may have changed their packages because they are going up on their prices on Jan 21. The increases range from 0 to $8 depending on package.

Honestly, none of those channels would motivate me to subscribe.
