Who's to say there is enough news? Unless they carry EVERY news channel available to US cable and satellite providers, they do not have enough.
What a ridiculous argument. By that logic, since E* doesn't carry every channel available in the universe they do not have enough. Absurd.
as should all three "CSPAN" channels including "CSPAN 3" for those who need or want to follow politics closely.

Ok skottey, let DISH add all the NEWS channels available but let do it on TOP 250. That won't hurt my top 100 and/or top 200 package price.
I'm a DN retailer and I know what I'm talking.
BBC World is tied up in a contract with PBS, don't forget to call and make your pledge!
BBC World is being carried by my telephone company using the new IPTV service "IP Prime" which recently launched nationally. See the programming link below to verify this for yourself. I am sure it would be available to Dish Network, as well.

The paid programming after hours and on weekends kind of stinks. They should showcase some of the Fox News Channel programming highlights from the week or replay the national Fox broadcast channel shows. They could replay the Fox primetime when they go off the air at midnight and then run Sky until 5 or 6 when they business stuff goes on the air. I am sure they have something in mind other than paid programming until 6PM on Saturday and Sunday. Even CNBC plays Conan O'Brien in the off hours.
I'm 100% agree. If Dish is going to add more NEWS channels in order to raise my service bill, the answer is NO. We got already so many NEWS channels(Locals, national, international plus spanish news). In additional, we got NEWS thru the internet. We need to add channels that offer different content period!.
I wish they would add Chiller. My wife won't let me hear the end of it since I switched from D* to E*. It was her favorite channel, and Monsters pretty much blows. I'll have to admit, I miss Chiller alot too.
Is Chiller commercial free? I don't know how you can say Monsters blows. I am a huge horror movie fan and love Monsters HD. Sure, they have their share of repeats, but so does HBO, Showtime, etc. Monsters is uncut and commercial free. I was under the impression that Chiller was a commercial station, kind of an NBC niche cable channel like Sleuth.
Commercials= unless it is live news or sports, my own rule is to DVR all commercial programming and watch it later without the ads. No time to spend an hour watching a 40 minute show full of ads. I hate ads.
I nominate Fox Business Network, Comcast SportsNet Northwest, American Life TV, BBC World News.
I would also nominate the Mountain West Conference Sports Network ("The Mtn"), at least as part of the Sports Pack.
