DirecTV customers have lost access to local CBS affiliate KPAX due to a carriage dispute. KPAX-TV is advising viewers on alternative ways to access its programming, including over-the-air antenna and online streaming options.
For DirecTV customers, the immediate effect is loss of access to KPAX’s local CBS programming until the carriage dispute is resolved. The broader signal is that local broadcast carriage remains a friction point in pay-TV distribution, and KPAX is already steering viewers toward antenna reception and online streaming instead of waiting on the operator. For StreamingMeme readers, the key detail to watch next is whether KPAX restores service on DirecTV or continues pushing viewers to its over-the-air and streaming alternatives.
