Ok Where is Dish's Agreement with NBC?!? DirecTV beat them...

[hancox]

Scott - I'm more concerned about O&O NBC ongoing. Seeing as WVIT is O&O (unlike WFSB for CBS), you probably should be too

 

[Scott Greczkowski]

I don't believe that Dish is doing NBC HD after the olympics, I could be wrong and hope I am wrong. Although I get WVIT fine OTA and also get it via Cox Cable.

 

[hancox]

$%#$%@#$%@#$ Oh well

 

[Stargazer]

Probably not compelling enough content for them.

 

[dfergie]

Maybe Leno and Trump are not compelling enough

I saw a preview last night for the new apprentice. It looked like it was in 16x9 format. Does this mean the new apprentice is going to be in HD? That is compelling for me!

Scott, its' now Saturday and still no announcement. Does Dish ever make announcements on weekends or is the new date now Monday, which is five days since your announcement of tomorrow. I think someone at Dish is blowing smoke and you know where it is going.

 

[Scott Greczkowski]

Jerry please PM me and I will tell you whats going on.

 

[GaryPen]

Wow. Donald Trump's hair in HD. It's compelling, but in the same way as a car fire.

 

[BFG]

A lot of times they letter box their promos for the "effect" when they're really on SD. But Mark Cuban's show will be in HD so that should be a fun one to watch

Jerry please PM me and I will tell you whats going on.

You can't tell the rest of us without a private message? Is it that bad ?

 

[Scott Greczkowski]

Its not that bad.

It's coming.

 

[John Kotches]

Scott's probably trying to protect his source of information. If you burn a source, they tend to remember it and become hesitant to provide information in the future....

Cheers,

 

[Scott Greczkowski]

Bingo John, you hit the nail on the head.

 

[MikeD-C05]

Maybe Dish is going to offer HD versions of the superstations. THat would be an exclusive to Dish . They could also offer Bravo Hd and the hd version of nbc as well. Am I getting warmer Scott?

 

[Scott Greczkowski]

Nope have not heard that one. It would be cool though.

Larry the Cable guy in hd

 

[Neutron]

That would be a site to see him in HD telling why he got the nickname "Tater Salad".

 

[pfef98]

'Tater Salad' is Ron White, Larry the Cable Guy is the 'Git 'er Dun' guy.
