Golf Channel HD forced to 4:3 format?

Not sure if this is the right place for this. But I've noticed that for the last day or two, Golf Channel HD and NBC Sports HD here in the Columbia/Ellicott City, MD area are showing up in 4:3 aspect ratio. Basically it looks like the HD programming is "forced" into a 4:3 ratio so everything looks "squished" in from the sides.

Certain this is not a TV or STB issue as other HD channels are coming in just fine. Anyone else seeing the same thing?

Getting the same 4:3 ratio.  Does Verizon have a solution?

I'm having the same problem. NBCSN is affected as well. I pay extra for these channels; this is not acceptable.
