CBS stations in Atlanta, Detroit, Pittsburgh, Philadelphia, Tampa, Sacramento, San Francisco, Seattle, and Tampa have announced that starting September 1st, 2023, they will be dropping The CW and becoming independent.

Looks like they are all owned by CBS. Largely driven because these stations want to get back into airing local sports now that RSNs are dying. Kind of ironic.Huh
From the Google: "As far as satellite TV goes, the CW is available on all packages with both DIRECTV and DISH."
probably nada as they werealready games we were going to get paid for from rsnNobody has asked how much more of a share it would be for each team in the ACC. Isn’t that the most important part of Thais story?
He has Dish network, which is not available in Canada. Not sure how he is doing it. Billing to an American address?Lightfoot lives in Canada.
TV is different up there.
Correct. The rights to those games were sold to Raycom a decade or so ago. The ACC got paid then. When Raycom re-sells the rights, the ACC gets nothing.probably nada as they werealready games we were going to get paid for from rsn
"Never take counsel of your fears." - Thomas J. "Stonewall" JacksonI get every sports channel possible. I fear that the WB will broadcast their teen shows long before they will exempt them to show a college basketball game.
Probably but we really don’t know what the contracts say.Correct. The rights to those games were sold to Raycom a decade or so ago. The ACC got paid then. When Raycom re-sells the rights, the ACC gets nothing.
This is true to a degree. Numerous outlets up here sell the hardware, but you need to have an American firm handle the programming, and billing is handled through them. My service provider is in Detroit which is who I have to contact regarding program servicing and packages, cannot contact DISH directly. As far as Dish Network is concerned I live in Watertown, NY which is the closest city to where I actually live. I get all the local channels from that area. Maybe CW is not available in that upstate New York region??????He has Dish network, which is not available in Canada. Not sure how he is doing it. Billing to an American address?

It looks like you might be in luck here…This is true to a degree.

And let's not forget Dawson's Creek and Buffy the Vampire Slayer in the WB era.Lot of slander for a channel that has Smallville, One Tree Hill, Gossip Girl, All American and Veronica Mars (among many others) in it's history! Come on, now.

Put a 500 ft antenna on your roof. Maybe you can catch it over the air from Syracuse.I want to thank you guys for all the input on this, it is appreciated. I have no channel "The CW" or "TCW".
I found a couple of websites for "CW 14/22 Watertown". One had a link saying "Where can I get this channel?" and when I clicked on this I got some weird error window and was blocked. It said to send an email to them to sort it out. DUH! No email link or address was provided.
On another site there was a "chat" availability, but they wanted money to communicate with somebody.
Man, all I want to do is watch SU hoops and I've been running into roadblocks for 10-15 years. The ESPN games have always been there for me. The Regional Sports Channels were dropped by DISH a couple of years ago. Then the ACCN came on board and I was a happy camper. Now another BS scenario. As most of you know from past threads ESPN+ and ACCNx are not available for me.
As mentioned earlier, I will need to make a call to my Detroit provider to get some answers, hopefully.
