As of midnight, December 31, DirecTV will no longer carry KJZZ TV channel 14.
If you are a DirecTV subscriber, you will not longer get any programming that
KJZZ airs, including the 12 Utah Jazz games that are scheduled to run between
now and April 10. DirecTV subscribers will either need to change to another
cable / satellite provider (DISH Network, Comcast or other local cable
company), or access the KJZZ signal free via a home TV antenna.

Cable and satellite providers normally pay TV stations for their programming
content. DirecTV has not been compensating KJZZ for any of its programming
and yet they are paying other local TV stations for their signals. KJZZ has
requested that DirecTV pay a similar and fair fee to what they pay to other
Salt Lake stations, but they have refused to do so. KJZZ TV has had a long
standing agreement with Dish Network, Comcast and many other local cable
companies, who do compensate KJZZ for carrying its signal.
If you are a DirecTV subscriber and want to complain to DirecTV, their number
is: 1-800-531-5000
