DishNetwork Has An Obama Channel (Vanity)
October 1, 2008 | Ninergold3

OK - I'm about to call DishNetwork and give them a piece of my mind. However, I'm running out of pieces to give.

I was flipping through my channel guide on DishNetwork and what did I find? An entire freakin' channel on 0bama.

Channel 73 on DishNetwork is now OBAMA. Looks like all it is doing is playing over and over and over "Barack Obama's Plan for America".

Hey if his campaign is paying for it, and Dish freely accepts anybody else who wants in, I say let freedom ring.
How about a FreeRepublic channel?

You watched it, and then you actually survived it to tell the tale? They should call it the “Nineteen Eighty Four Channel”.

No way I watched it. I saw 73 OBAMA and hit "select" for a quick second to see if it was what I thought it was. Darned if it wasn't...

Curious to hear what DishNetwork will say when I call.

You are correct. It is even called the Obama Channel. It will be for the new Fireside Chats starting next year.

If you think the Obama channel is bad then what in the world was Obama doing today on TV(CNN)non stop talking about this wall street bailout. This is the first time I can ever remember any presidential candidate going on TV nonstop and advising the voters on something when he hasn't even been elected yet. Where is Bush, why hasn't he said something about Obama sticking his nose into this wall street business.

AlGore did that once where the Earth from space was on the screen I believe 24/7. I think it did not last long.

I checked my channel 73 and yup Zer0bama was there big $$ smile and all. My suggestion, go to the menu, select locks, option 5, put in you password, and then lock out the channel. Do not tell anyone your password and hopefully after November, the channel will be blank....
