Re: Ruh-Roh, Saints Game May Be Blacked Out for DirectTV Consumers

Obviously more than half the Saints games will be aired on FOX...

Raycom manages the broadcast for the Benson-owned Fox Affiliate in New Orleans and is the group in dispute with Direct TV...

Raycom wants to double the fee for DirectTV to rebroadcast what is essentially a "free" signal; DirectTV after a one-year crack addict low-base subscription rate wants to package and double the subscription rate...

Billionaires v Billionaires and the dumb masses are made to be inconvenienced...

Good luck with an antenna on the Northshore. Horrible reception. #WVUEsucks. Look for that Twitter tag if we don't get the game.

If you have Direct TV in the New Orleans tv area, they will broadcast the game on Channel 705 for today.
