Direct TV is once again feuding with media organizations, this time it’s Cox Media Group, which could affect your availability for watching some major shows.

Depending on the market you’re in, this could mean that you won’t be able to watch The Bachelor tonight on ABC if you have Direct TV.

But there is a way around it. Here is how.

ABC is still carried over the air in major markets. This means a digital tuner can still pick it up. Most new televisions have the tuner built in, so this means you can just go to a manual mode and do a channel scan. This should pick up any signals that are local. Including ABC.

If you have an older television, then you might need an antenna or separate tuner.

You can purchase one on Amazon HERE. Be sure to check the compatibility before buying.

And if the dispute is blocking out any other major, non cable networks this guidance could also work.

These disputes happen from time to time and eventually tend to work themselves out. Hang in there Bachelornation!
