An important update on your channel lineup

Our contract with E.W. Scripps Company has expired, and despite our best efforts, we have not been able to reach a new agreement. They’re making demands that would significantly increase what our customers pay for TV service, and we don’t want that to happen. Unfortunately, this means some of your local channels and On Demand content may currently be unavailable through Xfinity.


Thanks for your patience as we work to keep your TV package affordable.
