NewsNation, 63 Nexstar TV Stations Go Dark on Optimum Amid Carriage Dispute

^{Published on 2025-01-11 03:24:22 - MSN}

NewsNation and network and local programming provided by 63 of Nexstar Media Group's television stations in 42 markets across the country have gone dark on Altice USA's Optimum after the two parties failed to reach a new carriage deal prior to their current contract's expiration on Friday evening.

The article from MSN discusses a carriage dispute between Nexstar Media Group and Altice USA, which has resulted in 63 NewsNation stations going dark on Optimum cable systems. This blackout affects viewers in several major markets including New York, Los Angeles, and Chicago, as well as smaller markets like Albany, NY, and Fresno, CA. The dispute centers on Nexstar's demand for higher fees for the right to carry their stations, while Altice argues that Nexstar is seeking an excessive rate increase. This has led to a breakdown in negotiations, with Nexstar pulling its signals from Optimum, impacting viewers' access to local news, weather, and other programming. The article also mentions that Nexstar has similar disputes with other providers like DirecTV and Dish Network, indicating a broader issue in the industry regarding retransmission consent fees.
