Where's Fox News?

Can't locate Fox News on Dish TV this morning. The guide says Fox removed it. Anyone know what's up with that?

Dish and Fox are fighting over money. Same song Umpteenth Verse.

I was planning on dumping Time Warner and going all Dish this week.
This would be a deal breaker.

My experience with Dish is they not to be trusted and have sense of customer satisfaction - just more money for themselves.
But they have both racing channels......

I already have Dish in one room, the "Forego Lounge."

Don't fret. They'll work it out. I've had them all. Get the Hopper from Dish. It's awesome. You can watch from anywhere online. Even acces your DVR from anywhere with an Internet connection. I was driving up the Freeway watching Monday night football on the iPad the other night. Live.

Thanks guys. Their CEO, or whatever he is, came on and explained. Heard it on ESPN. I suppose tomorrow I'll checkout CNN if it's still down. Should get a few laughs there as well.

Dish has recently had their differences with CBS and Turner.
Those got resolved after a week, or two.
Same likely to happen here, but it's getting tiresome.

SNL's Weekend Update is closer to real news than CNN is!

I saw the founder give a speech about the negotiations.

http://dishstandsforyou.com/

I left feedback saying if they don't have FOX by 1/7, I will be cancelling service. I have been with them for over 10 years, but with internet streaming advances, I can live with Netflix and my favorite shows on cbs.com.

Is it back?
I've been a Dish subscriber for years, and I never would have known.
