Cheapest way to get FoxNewsHD?

[yardline]

Looking for advice on cheapest way to get FoxNewsHD. I'm a HD Absolute sub now. Loosing the HDNet and others channels won't bother me.

I have a 622. I currently pay:

DISH NETWORK DVR SERVICEFEE $5.98
DISHHD ABSOLUTE WITH LOCALS $34.99
Total Charges $40.97

Looks like the cheapest way to get FN is:
Classic Bronze 100 with DishDVR Advantage $44.99
*Tampa-St. Petersburg, FL Local ChannelsIncluded
BronzeHD $10.00
Total $54.99

Any way cheaper? Thanks.

That is what you would have to do, but you would lose a ton of channels.

I think it is also available in DishFamily but then you'd really be losing some channels.

Digital Family TV Programming - DISHFamily Package - DISH Network

Can you add HD to Family? I think HD requires a Classic, Turbo, or Advantage account.

You must really love FoxNews.

Well if you only want news channels you could get the HD news and finance package for $39.99

he has absolute. this means he is a residential. a commercial business package will not even be available to him if he did want it.

I would almost pay extra to NOT have FoxNews. haha I can't stand the yelling and all of them talking at the same time. Ignorant!

news anywhere seems to suck. i used to like cnn's headline news as they are quick and straight to the point and cover a lot of crap in half an hour, but lately everytime i turn it on its theres friggin nancy grace on. i cant stand that wench. what she talks about arent even in the headlines anymore anyways. did she get her phd in beating dead horses?

If you don't have the will power to keep your finger from hitting "enter" when you're on 205, why don't you just lock it out- won't even see it in your program guide unless your unlock with your password.

IMO, I'm glad I'm still permitted to watch Fox News - at least they're somewhat different than all the other "state run" media outlets. Someday soon we'll probably have a Bureau of Information that will determine what appropriate content the sheeple are permitted to watch, listen to, and read.

!!! State run media? Are you talking about PBS? If so, I agree with you....FNC and PBS couldn't be more different.

Fox News is living proof of the adage that "no one ever went broke by underestimating the intelligence of the American people".

You said all you wanted was Fox News but then you tell us you want ESPN and you apparently want locals. Any chance you could start over and tell us what you can't live without? It's pretty hard to hit a target that gets progressively larger.

I will not leave HD Absolute for *MSNBC-HD.

But that's ez for me to say, MSNBC-SD is still in the clear via qam/comcast.

Cant live without, locals, ESPNHD, TLC, HGTV (for the wife). That's all I watch. Would love to add FoxNewsHD.

 

[Laddyboy]

Since the Family Package apparently doesn't allow for HD, it seems DDA Classic Bronze with Bronze HD is the cheapest option currently available.

The NYTimes, Boston Globe and several other newspapers would beg to differ.

OT: Because people don't read papers anymore for their number one news source. Technology has pass newspapers by,
I for one will by sorry when they are gone
