Following one of the louder pay TV carriage disputes in recent memory, Newsmax is set to return to DirecTV’s linear and streaming platforms Thursday, seemingly without getting a core demand that the far-right channel fought ruthlessly for nearly two months to secure.
In announcing the multi-year carriage deal, DirecTV said Newsmax will return to DirecTV satellite TV and Stream (channel 349) and U-verse TV (channel 1220) “at no additional cost to customers” after being removed from these platforms on January 25.
