Comcast Cable blocks WTXL, Scripps stations while DISH drops WCTV

A business falling out between Comcast/Xfinity and E.W. Scripps Company has resulted in some local channels, including WTXL, to no longer be available to Tallahassee cable TV viewers.

Xfinity alerted customers in a March 31 email that its contract with the broadcasting company expired and a new agreement couldn't be reached. "This means that some of your local channels and On Demand content are currently unavailable," the email said.

It went on to say "unexpected changes to your channel lineup can be frustrating" and Scripps refused "our reasonable offers and is making demands that would significantly increase what you pay for TV service."

WXYZ-TV blacked out for Comcast Xfinity users due to carrier dispute

Xfinity subscribers of WXYZ-TV (Channel 7) woke up Wednesday to what looked like an April Fool's prank.

"Our contract with Scripps, the owner of this channel, has expired," the on-screen Xfinity message read. "Scripps has refused our reasonable offers, and their demands would significantly increase the price you pay. Thank you for your patience as we work to keep your channels affordable."

WXYZ and Detroit's WYMD-TV (Channel 20) are part of an Xfinity blackout across 19 Scripps markets. Comcast's agreement with Scripps expired at 5:59 p.m. Eastern time on Tuesday, March 31, according to Xfinity. In the Miami area, the Florida Panthers-Ottawa Senators game was cut off for viewers mid-broadcast.
