Walt Disney Co. and DirecTV continued their war of words Tuesday over a contract dispute that has led to a frustrating blackout for millions of pay-TV customers. Their weapon of choice? Tonight's eagerly anticipated debate between Vice President Kamala Harris and former President Donald Trump.
Walt Disney Co. on Tuesday offered to allow DirecTV subscribers to watch tonight's debate despite a fight over "carriage fees" that has resulted in the telecommunications company's customers losing access to ABC News, which is hosting the event.
But DirecTV said it rejected the idea, explaining in a blog post that it would "cause customer confusion among those who would briefly see the debate only to lose the channel again shortly after."
