Are you an employee? A stockholder? Professional propagandizer?

I'm not defending anyone. But some people bitch over over about nothing. and 90% of the time its their own fault. Read things clearly,and many would have seen right from the start What package Fox News and Fox Business news was in. Instead of Not reading clear getting pissed off and starting 5 threads about the same thing. It gets Old quick. I've posted many Times with Proof that Turbo pack were not Listed on Carrying Either Fox News Channels. I only defend a company when flase info starts getting spread around. I do the same for E* and D*. Originally Posted by Vic_Mackey

I am trying to understand what you are saying; are you saying that Dish never said Turbo Subscribers would be getting these channels? Originally Posted by Hemi 6.1

ADVERTISING BOX
The piece of evidence that blows your theory out of the water is the fact that they updated the turbo package page on the website to show both networks would be added to the package! It was up for about a day, and then they took it down, soviet union style! They added Fox News to the Turbo Bronze pack and Fox Business to Turbo Gold, and it was very clear on the website as such. Only later did they start spewing the mantra that you are citing. Originally Posted by Hemi 6.1
