Regarding Disney's pulling of ABC on Spectrum, it hasn't impacted my family's television viewing that I've noticed thus far, but had this occurred during another time...
...and all those television movies of the 1970s - man.

We have Spectrum, but I didn't even know there was a dispute. Hubby's big into sports & hasn't said a word either. As usual, both think they're in the driver's seat and have the upper hand. I just don't care anymore. Wonder how much of the viewing public is getting to that point too. There's a lot of cord cutting going on.

Surprised to read, dianedebuda, as ESPN is said to be a casualty of the conflict as well... Perhaps I should have typed " KABC"?

Just looked and the ESPN group is blocked here, but the local (Austin) ABC station is not. Apparently hubby wasn't watching anything lately on the ESPN stations.

Maybe you were getting the Spanish audio feed for the game? A few times hubby has recorded a game on his dvr and ended up with that feed error. My daughter's job is to look for problems like that for some companies like Google or the NFL network. Sometimes watches 40-50 feeds at the same time. Would drive me nuts.

Thanks for the explanation, dianedebuda. Makes sense, too, as we live in Southern California... Interesting field for your daughter.
