Viacom needs to hook up with CBS again or find a buyer ASAP. They are in deep trouble to say the least.

Can someone explain what the situation is here? Sling TV added YES (along with other FOX owned RSN's) last week. This is a bit amazing considering DISH's history with YES. Are they now negotiating contracts for Sling that aren't tied to the satellite service? If so, this presents a lot of...

That's what I figured. No idea what provider they were using. I assume it was either DirecTV, Cablevision or Verizon Fios. Something seems fishy about this whole thing. I'm beginning to think illegal setup to avoid the commercial license.

I was at a bar very close to my house last Friday evening (in the NJ burbs just outside NYC) and the local bar was showing the Yankee/Angel game on FSAngels. I was a little surprised by this but did not question it. I was under the assumption that the blackout rules protect the local team by...

I assume you are referring to Maude getting an abortion? I mean it was a role she played. Was it controversial? I suppose since it stirred people up. The woman has passed and she was probably one of the most remarkable leading females in television history. I think its unfair to attack...

As everyone knows the N is currently on 9576, are they ever going to reposition this? I mean it took forever just to get the N so I can't imagine they are in a hurry to find a better spot for it. Also, why is Nick GAS still on the air? What is going on with this?

Figured as much. The storm is terrible.

Was watching the tail end of 24 and now I am seeing a "Sorry for the interruption" slate. WABC is out as well here in NJ.

I'd have to go with the Visionsat IV-200. FTA is great but a PVR would make the experience that much better.

Has anyone lost distants in the NYC DMA? I have the all LA feeds (ABC, CBS, NBC) with the exception of FOX. They have yet to be turned off. Are they turning off people in rurual areas first then O&O or is it just totally random? I am trying to prepare myself for the inevitable. At least...

Not sure if anyone has discussed this yet as I haven't read through the entire thread, but this merger would become more likely if Dish/DirecTV agreed to give spectrum to another interested satellite party as a result. To those of you who say, whats the point of that? Well, a combined company...

It seems to me from what I read on here week to week that DISH's satellite capacity seems to be somewhat messy and disorganized. Obviously, E* 10 will clear a lot of that up with the spotbeams and the locals. Will DISH ever convert all its programming to MPEG4 in order to increase capacity on...

I never thought I would say this. Charlie actually came through.
