We've had Directv for 17+ years (Michigan and here), and this fight over price negotiation is always brought to the public, after which it's usually resolved quickly. I was surprised that one of the networks put the rant into their 6 o'clock newscast as if it were a news story. A clear attempt to get the public to complain to Directv. In Michigan, they would put a public service announcement on between programs but not bother viewers with it as a pseudo news item.
