Why isn't the Fox News channel in HD as with Telus and Bell?

[rolyat77]

I note that Telus and Bell provide an HD feed of the Fox News Channel, yet with Shaw, it is not the case. As I am forced to pay for a premium channel to watch and it is available in HD why not provide it?

Hey rolyat77,

Thanks for reaching out! I understand you have also posted in the thread here. We are launching new HD channels and SD to HD channel upgrades with BlueSky TV. You can find more information here. I appreciate your patience and understanding for the specific channel to be available.

Cheers,

Thanks Tony

I am on Bluesky, so I hope it won't be long before it hits the Lower Mainland market. I will finally be able to only have HD programming. Thanks for the good news...

Hey jeff69, no word on when the content will be available in the Lower Mainland. When it does launch, we will announce it on the page listed above.

Why does Shaw include liberal news stations like CNN and MSNBC on total tv package but not conservative stations like FOX news? Should Shaw not be apolitical?

> not conservative stations like Fox News ?

This is "Fake News".

In my region, Shaw's Channel Listing shows:

Total TV:

113 Fox Seattle HD

143 Fox Rochester HD

255 Fox News

Basic TV

015 FOX Seattle

038 FOX Rochester

142 FOX News

203 FOX Seattle HD

208 FOX Rochester HD
