OAN sues DirecTV, accusing it of succumbing to liberal pressure to drop the far-right cable channel

Herring Networks, which owns One America News Network, filed a 36-page lawsuit this week against DirecTV and parent company AT&T, alleging DirecTV has “bowed to political pressure and have put their unlawful interests and the unlawful personal, political, and financial interests of their management ahead of contractual and legal obligations." Last year, Reuters reported that 90% of OAN's revenue comes from its deal with AT&T. Meanwhile, the republican attorneys general of the states of Texas Louisiana, Mississippi, Missouri, Montana and South Carolina have sent DirecTV a letter warning of consequences if it doesn't reverse its decision to drop OAN.
