CBS stations return to DISH

[wolfpack1]

Charlie did say that losing TNT/TBS and/or CBS to a dispute is a grave concern for Dish Network and CEO of Dish Network said the same thing especially when Time Warner lost a lot of people when they had their dispute. And then on top of that Dish Network has lost people this year and not gained new subscribers I think Dish Network should carefully think these disputes over with.

Charlie has pulled CBS before..its deja vue all over again

Of course they will. That's never in doubt. But why do they have to saber-rattle and annoy their subscribers?

Because they think it will prompt viewers to call Dish and say "pay whatever they want, we want the programming!"

NOTE: I am NOT saying that's a good way to do business.

Is it just me or does CBS sound like that dumb parent who keeps letting their kid get away with doing something bad. "Either you agree to our terms or we're going to pull the channels...OK we'll give you an extension. But when that's up, so help you if you don't agree...OK, here's another extension..." S*** or get off the pot already!!!

HAHAHA!
So true

That annoys the piss out of me. The parents who discipline their kid like a wrestling referee. Now you better behave before I count to 3......1......2.......now will you knock it off? 1......2......

(the referee in wrestling always does 1,2,3,4,now ____ knock it off. 1,2,3, (rinse repeat)

It is a little like crying wolf, but I think neither wants it to happen yet it seems neither is giving in on something being discussed.

 

[Mr Tony]

so now CBS kinda shot themsleves in the foot with the extension. After all their commercial said "you will miss this weekends SEC championship game and NFL Football".
Yeah it mentions big bang and ncis but sports is the big thing for cbs

I just heard (unconfirmed) that they are close, and basically now it is coming down to the wording of some things.

That to me says the money aspect is or is near being resolved.

Of course this in unconfirmed and should just be considered a rumor.

This site wouldn't work without rumors.

Phooey. I wanted more fireworks.

Because somebody always needs to say something negative, let me be the first to ask "how much is this going to cost us????"

So looks like CSN is my only hope for free Starz for 3 months soooooo I'll likely bite the bullet and pay for Starz when Black Sails starts back.

Looks like WCCO got turned off.

 

[bgullicksen]

WBZ and WSBK in Boston is gone too! Goodbye Dish. I've already placed my order with Comcast. I don't like it but Dish seems to experience more lost stations than any other provider around my area.

 

[JerryDowning]

CBS just got pulled in Chicago.

 

[stardust3]

Wonder who was bluffing?
