Is this some kind of retarded black out restriction???

[vi edit]

Every 15 seconds this giant black box shows up on my screen. I change the channel and flip it back and it goes away only to show up again in 20 seconds. It goes away when they cut to commercial breaks.

Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr :|

Is this some stupid fscking black out policy? I'm in Eastern Iowa using Direct TV.

 

Turn off the "Text mode" closed captioning on your TV.
