I believe Sky have pulled out.
But don't know if any other station will show our League.
I do believe however there will be a weekly programme about the RFL, it's on the Disney Channel,

When SKY announced they had brokered a new 5 year deal for Rugby League, they only said they were showing SL games.

Championship clubs don't get any SKY money so its no great loss.

The original announcement on Sky Sports News actually included the Championship. When did they change this?

I've never seen mention of The Championship in the current deal.
