The ongoing dispute between DirecTV and Disney over a new carriage deal has intensified, with both parties accusing each other of unfair practices. DirecTV took the issue to the Federal Communications Commission (FCC), filing a complaint that claims Disney has not been negotiating in good faith.
As a result, Disney channels like ESPN and ABC remain blacked out, leaving viewers unable to watch key sporting events, including the final week of the U.S. Open tennis tournament and most college football games, Associated Press reported.
