FOX News Channel and FOX Business Network are back on DISH! Thank you for your patience and support!
Meh. I don’t like FOX. It’s like being at my mom’s house with everyone yelling at each other all the time.
What a thoughtful post.
7pm central and on here
I missed the business channel
directv is a great service. They used to lose signal when it rained hard but they fixed it. When i cancelled they hounded me for months.
Great newscast. I try never to miss it.
Bret Baier pretty much carries Faux news on his back.

Fox News is carried by the Women’s Wardrobe Department. No doubt about it.
“They stopped being conservative long ago. Now they are just water carriers for the GOPe.”
Why do you say that?
Why do you call it Faux News?
I’m so leery of the accuracy of programming on the History Channel. O’Reilly announced last night that he was going to be doing some history programming on FOXNews (8 episodes, iirc). I’m sure he’ll be working with his co-author, Martin Dugard on these projects. I’m looking forward to it.
I wish there were more programming out there that one could truly trusted for accuracy. I’m really glad Rush is doing his children’s books, but I often wonder if it’s too late to turn things around. Guess I’m feeling a little deflated tonight. :-/
I think it is a good thing because eventually it will make media more content centric rather than channel and also it will allow more true independence of content. A conservative channel can be a conservative as it likes as long as conservatives will pay for it and they won’t have to pay for it while paying for Bill Mahr or some lgbt crap. There will still be packages offered or build your own package deals. The content will just be more controlled by the consumer which will make it even harder for the left and progressive elites to exert control universal control over the culture. Its already crumbling. The same pressure tactics used to shut down and shut up opponents of the left are failing more and more and I welcome a world where they will simply be left screaming in their rubber rooms. Sure it will mean some crap rises too but I’m all for a true market place where I pay for just for what I like.
The Blaze is Still Showing on the Dish Channel where Fox News used to be.
Yeah, here too.
I think that we will get more crap.
Remember this though.
The Dish subscribers are not the customers, they are the product. Ads pay for TV and Cable, and with the rise of digital records, the advertisers know if you are watching the commercials or changing the channel.
I have asked all the mid twenty and younger people at the plant if they have paid TV. Very, very, few do. They watch Netflix or streaming. No ads.
The death of the ad agencies is fueling this.
Well if they would charge $5 more {I'm on Direct} and FOX would loose Karl Rove, McCain, Lindsey Graham, Shepherd Smith, Juan, and Geraldo, it might be worth it again LOL. Cubuto is about their only decent show of substance left there. Their nightly line up completely STINKS!
... I can’t remember the last time I watched news.
You just received notice of a rate increase due to a contract between Dish and Fox that haxn’t even been finalzed yet?
That’s BS.
I told you it wouldn’t be long. It rarely is with rights fee disputes. It looks like they found a mutually acceptable amount.
I called 3 days ago to complain about how long it was taking and that we were looking at other options - true. They gave us a 50 deduction and 20.00 off for the next 6 months. I said OK but that doesn’t mean we aren’t going to switch. We are looking at Direct TV thru AT&T U verse.
