Don't watch local TV stations? DirecTV will shave $12 off your monthly bill if you drop them

DirecTV has introduced a new package that allows customers to opt out of local stations, giving them a discount of around $12 per month. Customers can choose to drop local channels during certain months and add them back when desired. The move comes as many consumers are seeking more affordable options and more control over their content choices. This comes amidst the pressure for TV providers to adapt to cord-cutting trends. DirecTV customers can reconfigure their package over the phone or online soon. The decline in television viewership has also affected local broadcasters, with free streaming service Zeam now providing local news coverage from approximately 300 stations across the US.
