Line 20:
During Cablevision and Dish Network's disputes over carriage of FOX, most of the pushes were pretty much mentioning everything but the kitchen sink for FOX, FX, and their sports networks...while not one contribution of MNTV was mentioned beyond that it exists (besides [[Did Not Do the Research|lack of research]] from writers who thought ''SmackDown!'' was still on it). This probably earned them a [[Stealth Insult]] when Cablevision announced they put the channels back on, by saying MyNetworkTV was a channel of "little or no interest" to viewers.
The network also has the indignity of being mostly on digital subchannels of big network affiliates in markets as large as Columbus, Ohio (where it is carried on a subchannel of [[American Broadcasting Company|ABC]] affiliate WSYX), meaning that it often gets left out of TV listings, won't be in HD in many markets, and isn't rated by Nielsen on a regular basis because of its all-repeat schedule, and may not even be carried by a provider because of lack of any good surrounding programming. In some markets where the other stations have bought off all the good programming, it airs on the same channel as lesser networks such as This TV, Antenna TV, RTV, Me-TV, and Jewelry Television, meaning the only thing leading into primetime is either an ancient sitcom rerun or a "Gem Extravaganza", thus assuring very low ratings.
