It may be a local market thing. On ATT Now (internet TV) when they don’t sell an ad for my market they just say ATT NOW will be right back.

I know some markets buy different things. So it could be your local market is getting the MSNBC or that Trump is only paying for a targeted market and MSNBC is paying for the other.

The technology in the dish system isn’t really recording what you see though and you’re seeing the national broadcast when you rewind.

Just an educated guess. But your theory could be correct.

Good guess. Dish covers the local position, recorder is getting the raw network feed. Probably too big a PITA for them to record every possible variation, so they just record the net feed, and that’s what you get on replay.

I hate our cable service. It’s out of service more than it’s on and, of course, they never send a refund. Been this way for 20 years. That said, at least MSNBC isn’t offered so we’re not paying that garbage.

Speaking of which, we don’t get the garbage picked up half the time, either.
