101. BUT!

(And this is where I truly hate how legacy network television is set up. )

The Sinclair Affiliate Network stations are Pre-empting his show anyway. Not sure about Nexstar.

So, there are still millions who are going to be blocked from seeing his show.

Absolutely despise the whole affiliate framework. It smacks of control. ABC (or any of the other 3) have a great show, but some conservative tightass in xyz market in outpost, MO decides they won’t air the show. So, iron curtain crap.
