If this is regarding Newsmax (the recent situation), then not politics. This was normal carriage negotiations. Came down to Newsmax wanted to paid a cost they didn't have before, which DirecTV balked at. Unlike the last situation (OAN), they are not saying hit the trail. If Newsmax wants to come back with a new offer, then DirecTV will listen.

Remember, pay TV is entertainment and not any kind of right. So the TV provider has no obligation to have any given channel or give into cost demands they don't agree with. They control what they offer, not what you choose to watch. If you cannot handle it, then find another provider that has what you want.

Our differences with Newsmax are economic, not political or ideological.

Many feel that way but everyone has to remember that Directv or any other TV provider does not have to carry any network that they do not want to carry.  The channel lineup is subject to change at any time.  People may not like it or feel their motives are wrong that is their opinion.  But according to Directv they are still open to bringing back Newsmax and that it was Newsmax who walked away from the table.  But Newsmax is basically saying the same thing in reverse so who knows what is going on.  But you can still watch Newsmax for free on the Newsmax app or on PlutoTV which is free also.
