"Why don't people like me????"
The Blaze?
Are they kidding? 24 hours of of click-bait news and Beck having meltdowns?
If I were Beck I wouldn’t like this questionable honor. I might have even turned it down. And since I’m not, I’ll just not watch. I’ve been a little leary of Beck for awhile now.
No doubt in my mind. It’s the only news outlet they don’t have 100% control or family members working there.
As they do with the other networks.
DISH is getting tiresome with these lost channel deals. If it weren't for my wife's need for it, I could easily live without satellite/cable.
Maybe this is a new agreement but The Blaze has been on Dish for quite some time.
What I understand is that the issue is bundling. It seems that Fox introduced fee increases for other sports and information channels not part of the original contract. At first I was in Fox’s camp but I don’t support this bundling fee crap so I’m glad Dish is fighting this battle and it isn’t as if they have just fought this battle with Fox News. Dish was one the largest network to add Becks the Blaze so it clearly isn’t a conservative versus liberal issue.

As much as I used to watch Fox News Exclusively.I don’t really miss it any more.If or when the channel happens to come back.I don’t really care anymore.
I respect Fox’s right to get paid a fee commensurate with the quality of their programming,but I don’t expect them to screw their viewers by pulling their programming just before the Christmas Break.Then screwing the viewers again by expecting them to pay for more Commercial time.
I really don’t miss Fox at all.
We already had GLENN BECK..I watch very little of what DISH has on..there are more advertisement and sports channel I am paying for than anything good to watch..We are moving to Direct TV or nothing at all may just scrap the whole satellite thing and go to computer TV.So there is where it stands for us now..I THINK BOTH FOX and DISH will learn a lesson by doing this..We can save a good amount of money by just cancelling it all..
“This Fox battle Dish makes me wonder if Obama is involved.”
Fox wants Dish to pay for the entire Fox lineup but Dish says they would have to raise rates to do so. Dish says that would not be feasible.
Dish has market segment problems so they are in a bind on this.
To counter, Dish is rolling out Sling which for $20 a month will provide a few channels on internet. The are targeting this option for people that can get OTA local channels and subscribe to Hula or Netflix.
Beck is a total sellout. Literally.
Kinda like replacing a Cadillac with a Chevy Volt................hey they’re made by the same company!.......................
Whatever, I’m ditching DISH. Moving on to Xfinity Triple Play. I feel like I deserve a 50% discount for the past month’s lack of Fox.
That means if you have Dish, you can now watch TheBlaze on channel 212 and channel 205, 100 percent free.”
It’s not free, stupid.
DISH charges for their buffet...
Beck wrote on his Facebook .... “That means if you have Dish, you can now watch TheBlaze on channel 212 and channel 205, 100 percent free.
Does anyone here remember when ALL Stations were 100% paid for through advertising?? If FOX really wanted to have fun with Dish, they would put the channel up Non Scrambled for everyone, just like the Velocity Channel, NASA used to be a free channel too on Dish.
I was never a can of Beck but listened on occasion, sometime last year Beck made an announcement he was going to in a couple of days broadcast something that was going to bring down the gov’t or at least change everything as we know it, he made a big deal about it in his emotional way. When he does that I might start listening to him again, fool me once it’s on me, try it again and you drop from my radar, I am told he has done things like this several times.
Did you wonder the same when CNN was not available for the same reason? I appreciate Dish not bending over. I like my rates not going up.
If so, wouldn't they have replaced them with Al Jazeera?
