This is really unfortunate: Journal Broadcast Group has decided to pull their programming from Time Warner Cable’s lineup. We have been negotiating hard and in good faith with Journal in order to reach an agreement that avoids a large and ultimately unreasonable fee increase — without any additional programming value.

After all, all the programs that Journal offers are free over the air, and most of the individual shows they offer are also available free online.

The following stations are affected by this unfortunate disagreement:

In Wisconsin:
NBC’s WTMJ also D2 and D3, Storm Team 4 and Live Well, respectively – Milwaukee, WI
NBC’s WGBA – Appleton, WI
NBC’s WACY/MyN – Appleton, WI

In Palm Springs, CA:

NBC’s KMIR
MyNet’s KPSE – LP

In Omaha, Nebraska

CBS’s KMTV

We’ll continue to work towards an agreement, but in the meantime, customers can view alternate local options to receive local news and weather, and they can go online to view many of their favorite programs.
