I love Dish, no problems at all. There are LOTS of other places on TV to get the news. I won't miss Fox as I rarely watch it!

Why don't you watch other news channels, such as MSNBC, for a few days to see what you've been missing...like, get to know BOTH sides of the issues, instead of just one-sided FOX.

Its hard to watch other news channels when they don't even report stories I follow. At least FOX reports unpopular stories.

Just so some who replied know. I do watch other news channels but my primary and preferential choice is Fox News. What others think of it is up to them and their choice. I have always been a person that likes to here all sides, the right side/the other side and the side in the middle.

I didn't want to make this a plug for or against Fox News, just letting others know about what is going on with Dish customers and this network. And CNN was back on within 3 weeks when Turner Broadcasting Network was negotiating a contract with Dish Network. I don't know how many stations were included, but only a few of them were ones that I watch/DVR and I did miss some shows that I like.

I also called them when I lost those channels and asked them for a discount. They declined on that one even after I mentioned possibly switching to DirecTV.

FOX News automatically comes up when I sign in to the Internet.

I didn't even know this until it was posted here. I don't watch Fox news, so it doesn't matter to me although when they lost TCM that definitely got my attention. Thank goodness they got it back, or I would've dropped them.

I had Dish for 12 years and then switched to Direct. IMO, for the same money I get a much better channel lineup. Can't imagine going back to Dish. As someone else said, I would gladly gift you Fox News.

It's just as easy, and reasonable, to say "It's hard to watch Fox when they don't even report stories I follow. At least [the librul media] reports stories that aren't popular on Fox".
