DirecTV and Disney Standoff Leaves Millions Missing Monday Night Football

A week-long blackout continues as DirecTV and Disney fail to reach a new carriage agreement, impacting access to key sports broadcasts.

11 million DirecTV subscribers are affected by the blackout that started on September 1.
The dispute centers on carriage fees and Disney's bundling requirements, which DirecTV contests as anti-competitive.
DirecTV has filed a complaint with the FCC, accusing Disney of negotiating in bad faith.
Consumers have missed the U.S. Open, early college football games, and may miss more NFL games if the standoff persists.
DirecTV is offering customers $30 credits and alternatives for viewing affected channels.
