Well we won't see any retransmission threads with Nexstar for at least a few years since they said it was a Multi year contract.
I got my Fox back but not my ABC. They're both Nexstar, and ABC has been off since the summer.
Are you sure the ABC station is Nexstar? Since it's been off since the summer. Look at the bottom of the stations website and it should say. I don't know where you live or what ABC station's call letters to help you. Also does your ABC station still have the Dish/ Nexstar disclaimer about the dispute?
MERRY CHRISTMAS EVERYBODY !!! Thank You Dish for resolving the dispute even though it's going to cost me more.
Now time for football.
Now time for football.My bad, the dispute is with Mission. The station is WUTR Utica NY. I believe both WFXV the Fox and WUTR Abc are both locally run.

I fully expect the locals fee will increase at some point, but that increase will not tell us what the Nexstar settlement was as you claimed. And Nexstar owns or manages 197 stations, but only 164 of them plus WGN were involved in this dispute. Dish has still not settled with Mission Broadcasting...

Nextar controls roughly 1 thousand stations.. something called a lma( local management agreement).. they use shell companies to get over fcc ownership agreements...you just have to do a little math when the price for locals goes up later this yearI fully expect the locals fee will increase at some point, but that increase will not tell us what the Nexstar settlement was as you claimed.

Actually, not until January 14th.
No, I don't expect the price to increase next week.
It will be sometime for the accountants to fix thingsActually, not until January 14th.

So the list Nexstar says includes ALL stations they own or manage is wrong? Your claiming Nexstar owns or controls over half of all full power stations in the US, and that just isn't true. Do your homework...
"Nexstar owns, operates, programs or provides sales and other services to 197 television stations (including partner stations) in 115 markets or approximately 63% of all US television households including 122 local web sites and 316 local news and weather mobile apps."

Nexstar manages about 30 stations for Mission. They're all included on the list I linked to.
My Nexstar station is back on Dish but the Mission station is still blocked.
Since only the ~160 Nexstar owned stations were included in this dispute, apparently all those other secret Nexstar managed stations that no one but you knows about weren't affected.
Since there's only 1700+ full-power TV stations in the US, that's a pretty safe doubt, renegade...
Like I posted earlier, Nexstar operates both my local NBC and FOX stations. The NBC local is now up and running as a result of this agreement but FOX has been down for months and is still down. The guide shows no programming and the station itself shows access to fox programming through the options of OTA antenna and the Fox app.
The FOX station is shown as owned by Warwick Communications but operated by Nexstar. The FOX local webpage shows the local NBC station as a "sister" station.
The info page also says that the NBC local is owned by Nexstar. Since they are related stations, and both operated by Nexstar, I don't understand why I still don't have FOX. It must be something local because the disagreement between the FOX local and Dish has been going on for many months so I don't see it getting resolved at all. The NBC dispute only lasted a month or so.
The other thing causing this may be that even though they are both operated by Nexstar and are sister stations, the fact that the FOX local is actually owned by Warwick may be the kicker.
