    Disk makes 6:00 news for being a deadbeat

    A local news channel in Wichita Kansas ran one of those consumer protection spots about Dish network not installing a superdish that had been prepaid. Seems the long term dish customer prepaid for the Superdish, but had been put on hold for months for the installation. The spot indicated that...
