I just cannot believe this station got rid of one American news that was the best news station the public has out there today with all the corrupt CNN ABC all those companies that are bought and paid for by people to post their opinions not the true news it’s a absolute great loss for DIRECTV to lose that channel and honestly I’ve been with you for many many years and I’m completely looking for somewhere else that does have one American news on it it’s disgusting you got influenced by money and power rather than the will of your viewers !!!!

Ok I may be a little slow but woke up this morning and turned on 347 and imagine my surprise!!!!! No OAN. Called DTV and they said they are in negotiations with OAN. I have been with DTV for over 20 years and when there are negotiations, they put that on the channel information. They don't say this channel is no longer available.  Told them they are not telling the truth. Told them they took my program I will take back the one fifty I pay them every month.  They then said that OAN refused to resign. I am not stupid; I know they kicked them off the air which was confirmed when I did a google search. . Now I am looking for a new television service. I refuse to stay with DTV if they take my channel. Wish I had ATT cell phone so I could cancel that also. Called Dish but they do not carry OAN. I figure if they are making me, and a lot of others go thru all this trouble we should just start a DTV boycott and give them a little taste of what they are doing to us. So, all of you internet super posters lets get going and let them know how we feel. Hit every forum you can find and call for a protest of DTV. We will see who is more powerful, DTV or we the people who pay for DTV.  I think we the people will win!

Also got lots of great information on other services which will make my search for a new provider easier. Hope this helps

@Nomore11 Sorry you were blindsided to all of this.  There is a giant megatheriid in here (80+ pages) where people have been expressing their disdain for nearly 3 months.  A lot of us have sought alternatives.  Mine's getting canceled today (making the call).  You can use a TiVo as @ahwhite has mentioned or other streaming devices such as Firestick or Roku and any smart TV I'm sure.  Check OAN's website for suggestions.  It took me a while to clear my dvr and getting used to streaming may take some time.  My cable company offers OAN but it would cost me another $72+ over and above bundled cable and internet prices so I looked into streaming options and people on here have been helpful.

Check or Vidgo and VuTVPlus as well. @ahwhite also informed us that TIVO has a very competitive 4K streaming package that bundles multiple providers (sling, Hulu, etc) together.
