Next week, DirecTV Stream will begin offering the Comcast-owned Golf Channel in its Choice package, while other subscribers will get access to the Fox News Media-operated Fox Weather. Fox Nation, which is also owned by Fox News Media, will be available as a $6 a month add on, the company said.

As part of the programming shift, DirecTV Stream said it will stop offering the One America News Network and A Wealth of Entertainment (AWE) starting April 4. Both channels are owned and programmed by Herring Networks, Inc.

DirecTV Stream is jointly owned by AT&T and TPG Capital.
