Today when I tried to turn on FOXnews, The regular channel was showing Glen Beck.  I am a subscriber to DISH TV and after flipping around to see if I were having a bad dream, I found a channel explaining that FOX had removed it's Channels from DISH.  I am somewhat addicted to FOXnews.  I will change to
Direct TV shortly if FOX and DISH don't settle their disagreement, whatever it is.  I assume FOX wanted more money for DISH to continue carrying their channels.  For God's sake, DISH, give them what they want.

I'll bet you still get MSNBC. 

Not picking on you, but I'm in the same boat. I subscribe to DISH, the el-cheapo package, and I don't get Fox News either. I do get MSNBC and Blaze. Clearly some content is worth more, and commands a higher price. Last time I checked, I'd have to upgrade, not one, but two tiers to get Fox News.

Be patient, they did the same with Turner network, and after a couple of weeks, it's back.
I'd have never known had you not told me.

They do that so they can charge you more when it comes back on.  I remember back when they had one movie channel.  So to get more money they put 2 on then 3 then 4 and now even more.  With all the channels there a lot of nights my wife can not find a good movie.  So she plays the DVD or Tapes.   For 165$ a month you would think she could find a good one every night.  All she looks at are movie channel.   She tell me the rest is all trash.   

Am I incorrect that it seems Dish seems to have this scenario quite often? I have cable at my primary and Direct TV at a mountain cabin. Rarely an issue on channels. Direct TV had a dispute with the Weather Channel recently, but in a replacement until it came back. That didn't bother me in the least in that since NBC bought that channel is has become far left global warming spewer of misinformation.

      This gets over my head in a hurry. I know what I can picture, something that pops on the device screen as if it were a text, but it is a web page. I'll wait 'n see.
      I'm in a dead spot. Fifteen years ago, 2001, on business, I found myself in the NO-zone. At the time, I was messing with small screen rendering and Adobe Go-Live. Now, 2014, I have not made any progress at all in that area. How sad is that?  Now, I have moved out of that leftist town and am picking up a few pieces.  Twitter is pretty cool. Responsive design is exciting, also.
      If you have your outcome securely in mind, I have no doubt the technology will comply. The rules and regulations? Well, that's another story.

It's basically an app that you install on your phone, and when we send out an alert, or a Conservative thought of the day, you will be alerted and can read at your leisure.
It's also good in the event we ever get attacked or shutdown, at least none of you will be left wondering what happened.
I'm considering a second site on another server as a mirror, in the event something tragic happens to our servers..

I don't do TV.  I am very lucky I have a very Conservative music station in my area.  When giving the news they call BS when it BS.  It's nice living on the Conservative side of the state now. 

Back on topic folks.

      Although I am not a great crime buff, I started following the Jessica Chambers murder the day it occurred, through topconservative and conservativetreehouse. This murder has attracted attention from many fronts, including Twitter. Because there was a flood of tweets, I would up trimming down my page to four or five accounts.  Sen. Cruz is a must.
      Not sure how far along with this project CPF is, but interest could easily be tested with a Twitter account, which has an advantage of being inter active. I mention the idea of dedicating an account to a small number of tweeters, since that format becomes quickly flooded if not careful.

I wouldn't be so fast to scream that, if DISH gives them more money, then DISH is going to want to try and collect more money from you, the subscriber for their service.

What you think DISH is going to just eat that cost? Don't count on it, there's one constant whether it's DISH, Direct TV, Time Warner, Comcast etc....

ALL I say again ALL cable outlets are greedy, money hungry, sob's who won't bat an eyelash passing the increased cost to them, right on to the consumer.

Yeah yeah I know I know that is how it works in a capitalist system.

And I am the first to say fine with me if that's the system we live under.

So long as it's a fair system.

Which is NOT what the situation is, when the consumer has to deal with one of these cable companies.

Ever just been given a credit when their service was out?

No? Surprise your entitled to it, and you should without having to call them.

They know full well what your watching, when you watched it, AND whether service is out in your area or not.

The leftist Media has exposed themselves as Obama lackeys, biased and calculating hypocrites that no longer care about the truth or being the watchdog for the people of this once great Nation they seem to revel in their role as co-conspirators in the block and tackle press. Look at what being Obamabots has done for them. It brought down Oprah and a slew of other mindless leftist Marxist drones exposing them for all to see the fools and idiots and true haters that they really are. Yes it was a grizzly death but in the end one fun to watch

Obama ran on hate and that speaks volumes.

Yesterday I made arrangements to have DirectV installed on the earliest date possible, which is New Year's Eve.  Dish goes out in the rain all the time anyway.  DirectV goes out in the rain for may 45 seconds, but I've had Dish out 45 minutes.  I had emailed Dish and told them if they didn't have FOX back by Saturday, I was changing.  Guess they didn't believe me.  (I know, I know.  Just being facetious.) And Direct is cheaper than Dish for more channels.

There's a lot of truth in that. Many that helped usher in the Marxist were either destroyed by their own ignorance (Oprah), or thrown under the proverbial bus, Or smothered in a hospital.
No one crosses the narcissistic psychopath with a goal of destruction...oops, "transformation" of America in his sites.

But you're right, many that went to bat for him early on, putting their careers on the line, have fallen by the wayside because people were looking for someone to give the reassurance that he was the chosen one, and when these people found out they'd been lied to, they turned on the ones they looked up to..

Supporting the Marxist publicly at this point is a death wish.

Did Oprah go belly-up  ?

Couldn't happen to a nicer reverse-racist who pretends to be a one-worlder, no-borders, smarter-than-though, more-caring-than-though.

From what I've read, she insulted her "White Middle Class" audience, the ones that made her millions, when in not so subtle a way, called them a bunch of closet racists.
Not once, but on several occasions, rubbed their noses in it, while elevating her own status as better than thee.

Her own arrogance got the better of her and her once adoring fans, left her worthless ass at alter she built in self admiration.
