Should You Switch TV Providers During a Dispute?

Networks pull their signal because they want you to switch providers to get us to agree to their demands. Unfortunately, ALL TV providers face this same problem. In 2019, 278 broadcast stations blacked out their signals, and that number jumped to over 340 in 2020.* So even if you switch, chances are that you will experience the same problem with another provider in the future.
