Business Wire
DIRECTV released the following statement today from Derek Chang,
executive vice president of Programming for DIRECTV:
“DIRECTV’s contract with the Citadel-owned ABC station in
Lincoln, Neb., is expiring on March 31. We have been negotiating in
good faith to try and reach a resolution and will continue to do
so. If an agreement is not reached by the deadline, we intend to
continue to provide the station as we have for many years, unless
Citadel demands that we take it away from our customers. If the
station comes down after the deadline, customers can tune to an
alternative ABC station – KHGI, channel 13 – but make no mistake,
it will be solely and completely the station owner’s (Citadel’s)
decision to take the station away from our customers.”
