I looked on News 12 website. Looks like they no longer support Roku. You can download Haystack app or Pluto tv app and watch it there.

This morning went to turn on the TV to watch the news and weather only to learn that the News12 channel had been removed? Nowhere to be found searching channels in the Roku itself and no sign of it here in the Channel Store on the Roku website?
Where did this channel go? Why was it removed? This is the only news channel out there that provided news for our specific area - not the NY metro area.
Can anyone shed light on where it went and why channels are just up and removed without any notification?

I noticed the same thing. I had it on Wednesday and today it is gone. I thought my kids deleted but that wasn’t the case.

Tell me about it. That's my go to channel as it's the only NJ one. I tried searching for it but nothing. They need to bring it back!

That News 12 channel on Pluto is not a live channel, it is just pre-recorded segments. The best one was the private channel version that Cablevison had created years ago and that one was still working. They had removed it from the channel store a while ago so if you deleted the channel, you would not be able to get it back. The live local version is/was much better for providing local news, I am going to miss the channel. Maybe if enough people contact Cablevision (Now Altice) and demand that they put back the local one on the Roku something will be done. The channel had no issues and has not been updated for a while so it really was not costing them anything to keep it up.
