E. W. Scripps Programming Agreement Expired
E. W. Scripps cable network programming is currently unavailable as our agreement with E. W. Scripps has expired.
Please know we pay programmers to bring you the entertainment you love, and a number of reasonable offers have been made and they haven’t been accepted. Comcast is working toward bringing back this programming, but only with fair pricing, terms, and conditions for customers. I know unexpected changes to your TV lineup can be frustrating, and I apologize for any inconvenience.

Here’s what the problem is we see. Your saying that it would cost everyone more money per month.
Ok, so if your company has 100 million subscribers. So you’re saying that there trying to charge your company $100 million per month for their channels?? I severely doubt it. Even if it was true, that would cost us a whole $1 more per month, holy s**t like that’s a “big deal “!!!
We have been loyal customers for years & most of the shows we watch & record are on this station-even Dish & Direct TV threaten every year that there “going to lose a station” if we don’t write in to say we want to keep them, but THEY NEVER DID WHAT YOU’RE DOING TO US. FIX THE PROBLEM OR WE’LL BE LOOKING ELSEWHERE.

I get that Xfinity doesn't want to pay whatever increased rates Scripps is demanding for access to its channels. But what I don't understand is why I can't stream NBC programming on Peacock. Programs just display a "blackout dispute" error screen. Aren't NBC and Xfinity owned by the same parent company? Why is the owner of a local broadcaster allowed to block your customers from accessing content that you own through your internet streaming service?
