I live in Henderson Texas and the same is happening. All of the major news channels (MSNBC, FOX, CNN, ABC) are just showing a black screen. I've reset my equipment and that didn't help.

Many people are reporting the same issues. My guess is that there has been a failure in part of the fiber network that delivers the channels to the ground station, or in an uplink somewhere. Hopefully it will be fixed very soon.
