Cord Cutters to Get More Free TV Programs!

More than 80 cities get a programming upgrade next year! Whether you’re in Peoria, Panama City or somewhere in between, you’ll soon find new channels that you only can get with a TV antenna. Best of all, these channels are free!

Nexstar Broadcasting recently announced its plans to make Bounce TV, Escape, GRIT, and Laff available to 130 channels in 81 areas across the country. This means more programming for nearly every viewer living in these media markets. For example, Bounce TV is the first African American broadcast network, while Escape appeals to women, and GRIT is aimed toward men. As its name implies, Laff is for anyone who loves comedy. These stations are owned by Nexstar, Mission Broadcasting, and White Knight Broadcasting.
