Dish Network Blacks Out Fox Channels Amid Contract Talks
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NQ9dO8YawF8



just seen a commercial on bright house with fox news hosts crying about how dish network blocked fox news and they told me to "don't let them get away with it and that i should email or call them to get them to get the channels up"...

like how funny is this? :|

who cares if dish network dropped you fox news? :lol:

and why are you reaching out to the bright house customers? what's the point in that?

and why are you crying and trying to make people think dish network is the "bad guys" just because they dropped you? :lol:


what are your thoughts?

Its' a contract issue, period. Dish wants to charge X, FNC wants to pay Y and they can't figure out where to meet in the middle. :rolleyes:
 
no, it's fox that wants dish network to pay higher fees/rates and dish network is tired of being bullied so they told fox to shove it... :P

Does anyone even watch Fox News?

YES!



Dish network caved and it looks like a lot of people watch FOX. In fact every year they beat all of them combined.



Fox is back on dish! Hallelujah! #FoxNews #DISH

When Fox News and Dish Network parted ways at the end of December, it wasn’t long before Fox News’ on-air personalities took to Twitter to steer frustrated Dish customers to the keepfoxnews.com website. Nearly a month later, the dispute is resolved and Fox News is back on Dish, much to the relief of millions of Fox viewers.

Fox News and DISH have signed a deal!
