As far as I remember you are correct, the the Big Three stations didnt have the delay. But the smaller stations all were delayed. Not sure what other restrictions they placed on the Big Three during the delay period. But its all moot since they dropped it. I know it was hated by the affiliates. Especially since they'd have to get a workaround permission during breaking news to stream live. But that only damaged their credibility to be 1st to stream storm coverage and breaking news, etc. So people turned to other affiliates. Bone-headed move IMO. And it served no purpose.
