  1. I agree WISH did an outstanding job that night. It’s ridiculous WISH Is not on AT&T, Direct TV and YouTube TV. That’s very disappointing.

  2. WISH TV has always been a favorite, however i have not watched it since their departure form the U-verse line up. Not sure how much more it is to re up with them but i venture to guess they would get many more viewers back.

    1. A little difficult to be a news leader when you aren’t carried by AT&T and Direct TV. I don’t really miss having access.

  3. I watched the coverage that night and it was outstanding. You could see and hear the emotion in all of their voices. Frankly, I have been very disappointed in some of the other news organizations. Fox 59 has done a pretty good job. WTHR should just shut down for their lack of coverage on all things and they have now taken a side in politics. WISH has become our news station. I agree it is awful AT&T does not carry their station. Best local coverage, hands down.
