I do the same. There is no reason to pay for local news. Get the fiber internet and a good streamer if your TV is lacking and you will be able to stream most of what you want, i.e. local channels for free.
Antenna and cable are obsolete, you can stream everything these days. Also don't fall for those "special deals" offered by the cable companies. They low-ball you to get your business then they raise their prices a year later and you have to go fight with them. With fiber internet they generally keep the prices stable, no tax, no fees. |

Try B Smart, a service sold at Markets of Marion. Allows you to get every channel that's out there. You need one box/TV, they are expensive, around $200. Service is $25/mo, $45/mo for 2 TV's. We've had it about a year. You net internet to run it. Works great, except when the signal is weak during peak times around supper. We have Comcast, 400mb, and often the signal is so weak we get surfing circles. I'm told fiber would eliminate this, Only Centric has fiber, and not sure if they are in TV.

We did the fire stick and added 5 Star cable for $32 per month. Every station you could think of. So far very happy

Note that there is a difference between having access to the live local channels on a 24/7 basis and watching recorded local programs on a free app. To get full access to live local channels, you usually must subscribe to a streaming or cable service that charges a monthly fee, use an antenna, or do something illegal.
According to "suppose.tv", the cheapest streaming service that offers the live local channels, ABC, CBS, NBC, and FOX, is Xfinity for $43.15 per month. That service also includes about 43 other channels. Suppose.tv is an excellent website to determine the cheapest streaming services for the channels you want. |

Make an appointment online for the Xfinity store located near Best Buy. You can talk with a live person who speaks English.

It's not about the news It's the other programs in prime time.

For the best local LIVE news use WFTV ch 9. You can download the app with Firestick or Roku.
