Nexstar Media Group, the biggest local broadcaster in the U.S., and DirecTV are preparing to face off in a retransmission-consent battle that could result in about 200 stations across 100 markets being blacked out at the end of the month.
Nexstar stations have begun running warnings that subscribers to DirecTV, DirecTV Stream and U-verse TV could lose signals from Nexstar’s ABC, NBC, CBS, Fox and The CW affiliates.
