MSNBC in HD on June 29

I bet if it's released in June us here at Dish won't get it until like October when they have that sweeps thing.

I bet they won't get it until the contract is up.

Dish seems pretty tight with NBCU, so hopefully they will add it fairly soon after it launches.

Unfortunately it probably won't be added to the Absolute package, but you never know...

MSNBC HD... funny thing... My 622 never showed FOXNews HD or FBC but my 722 does due to known issues with the smart card etc. I never took the time to remove the smart card and get Fox News HD, viewing it as a blessing. If this happened to MSNBC HD I'd be all over getting it fixed. Maybe I like MSNBC because I'm younger?

I look forward to this channel in HD and I only hope that DISH adds it when it debuts. It will be good to have the 3 major news channels (CNN,FOX,MSNBC) in HD.

I watch more MSNBC than anything else. Hardball, Countdown, and Rachel are all great programs. With a 16:9 screen, there will be more room for charts, graphs, ticker, etc.
