Grit

I was thinking that AT&T/Directv Community Forum should bring back the GRIT channel on 3 or 310. It was on before but replaced. Please bring it back. After all, we should get what we pay for.

The community forum of other customers has no say over what channels are available. It’s negotiated between the networks and corporate. They just can’t add a channel all Willy nilly

Grit is not a nationwide channel it is mainly broadcast by local channels usually on a sub channel that DTV doesn't carry if a local uses it as their main channel then DTV can rebroadcast it.

Well, willy nilly! It's funny how it was on the channel network before and it was decided to be taken off. For some odd reason, the network and or corporate decided to take GRIT off of the air. It was on Channel 310 before, why not again? What was the reason that it was taken off originally? I used to have that channel when I first got signed on to AT&T Directv. And the next thing I knew, GRIT was taken off. The negotiation should be up for question, it should be negotiated. I am sure I'm not the only one that has mentioned or wanted GRIT back!

DTV has no control over a channels programing or that channels they put it on.  Most likely there wasn't enough advertisers paying them so they removed it
