DIRECTV dropping OANN?

How could you bow down to the WOK cancel culture demands to dropping OANN?  They do not lie!  The "big lie of the 2020 election" is absolutely true. There is mountains of evidence of the election steal. All the misinformation comes from liberals not conservatives!  My husband and I will be dropping Directv if you go thru this in April. I will convince all our friends and family to do likewise. This is an attack on freedom of speech and our country. Shame on you!!!!

I have a klowdtv acct and a oan live account. oan and newsmax is also on plutotv which is a free service so I have oan from multiple sources when ATT cancels them.

 spectrumtv is the ATT competitor in my location and they donot have oan either and u have to pay exra to get newsmax so what is the choice between these 2 providers to ensure my rights.

I heard that ATT/Direct TV is canceling OANN because the big shots in the company don't like their politics...  if that is correct?

The day that OANN goes off the air... DIRECTV TV will go out of my house.(have been a customer since the 1990s) . 

I have plenty of other options. I have cable available, Streaming and DISH

I already got rid of ATT (saved money as well)

I do not care what side of the political spectrum you are on, Direct TV making decisions what to air based upon their own political beliefs is wrong and may even be an FCC violation which I am looking into

DirecTV has chosen to not renew the carriage agreement with OANN. That is not a FCC violation as nothing forces DirecTV to carry and pay for them unless they have an agreement to do so. Only if OANN's broadcast was dropped during the existing term would there be a violation.

Understandably this upsets some people. But DirecTV made a choice within their rights. I would suggest researching your options as Dish does not carry OANN.

Well, this is obviously a canned reply AND MAYBE EVEN A ROBOT

I am well aware of options, And aware of Dish options ...  but they are less expensive, and THE SERVICE COULDN'T BE WORSE THAN DIRECT TV (have you ever tried to call yourself) You sound like a Direct TV employee or stooge) otherwise DISH has about the same lineup...  so why should I support a company that HAS GONE POLITICAL? 

That is your choice as a company, and I have choices as well as I also have DISH cable and streaming and soon STARLINK

FYI

I can file all the complaints I want whether you think they are valid or not with the FCC, but they have gone WOK as well so would be as big waste of my time as this message to you is 

But things will change when the democrats get their butt kicked this fall unless massive election fraud happens again like 2020

In a couple of YEARS   DIRECT TV/ATT   WILL BE EXTINCT

ATT and DirectTV are dropping OANN for political reasons....  there are (Edited per community guidelines) Radio talk shows with tens of millions more

listeners than DirectTV has customers. I GOT RID of ATT because they are WOK and saved money in the process

DIRECTTV IS A DINASOUR AND I WILL DROP IT THE DAY THEY DROP OANN. I have been a customer since the 1990s

time to move on. Streaming and Starlink will be here soon

@rockbrg they don't care.  We had an 86 page thread on here that was just closed recently.  I've read the date is April 4 for OAN to disappear from DirecTV.  Once my DVR is cleared, I am calling them, even though I will be paid up until 4/20.  I don't care if I have to pay for days or weeks where I won't watch (they don't prorate anymore), I have an OTA antenna and TiVo box, plus 2 Firesticks and a Roku.  I've been fiddling around with them for the past few months and know how they work.

Here is the original thread that they just closed recently.  There is a lot of good info in there: https://forums.directv.com/conversations/community-lounge/directv-dropping-oann/61e2fc1ff693d71b8f6f5cac

I am watching OANN now during the hearing for the Supreme Court nominee. OANN may be the only one (not counting CSPAN) airing live the hearing. without comments. But as I noticed DTV will drop a news service that shows LIVE hearings so the people can see truth, to add a couple of channels that are racially skewed networks.

We love this channel and hate that you are dropping it. This is a political decision by Directv and is not supported by thousands of viewers. It’s time to drop Directv and find another provider.

Very upset that Directv is canceling OAN. So many things I’m stuck paying for in my package that I don’t want.  Just know most of the things this Satellite service is charging excessive prices to add (usually by having to upgrade to a more expensive package & giving more channels I don’t want than I do want) can be found in streaming services. There’s an app for OAN!

BUT... it is stupid!  Why cancel a program like OAN that was desired by a large audience and keep CNN who has lost almost its entire audience.

So very disappointed that you are dropping OAN. That’s the best news channel around. Reports the facts instead of bias opinions. Apparently AT&T doesn’t like the American people to hear the truth.  After months of fighting with you over the NBC problems, now this. We are seriously considering looking for another service

@Mbehl You don't even subscribe to Directv or Dtv stream. U are just following orders from your cult leaders over at OAN to complain about the conspiracy theory channel being dropped.

Not happy that Direct TV is cancelling OAN.  We will be switching to another service if they cancel OAN.  I'm tired of the media censoring watch the American public watches.  Let us decide what is true or false, not Direct TV.  Stop playing politics with our TV service.

Is DirecTV aware of their customer base?  CNN, MSNBC, NBC, CBS, ABC continues to lie to the American public (have been corrected on numerous occasions) and I'm sure you are aware most of these stations have lost a huge part of their viewing public?  So... why are you canceling OAN?  Also, the new lineup has caused a lot of problems; get a better support team!  I think this stupid action is going to lose a lot of customers... remember we have choices now!

What is your rationale for canceling OAN, a (Edited per community guidelines) news program? I know the constitution provides us with free speech in the United States. Or should we only listen to (Edited per community guidelines) run news programs???
