I thought that was part of the new agreement with Fox. I guess the new agreement is not yet in effect.
According to the Dish channel lineup card, Fox Business News is listed in Top 120 now.

I'm looking into this because our internal site still lists it as being available in the America's Top 200 and higher.
Thanks for checking - I was looking at the Dish website and Fox Business is still listed as Top 200 everywhere else except for that lineup card.
I'm with you on that. Only channel not on 200 that my wife watches so stuck with 250 for now. Dangit!
Dish has issues with this. According to one place, the EPL is still on Fox Soccer Plus.
In free preview now. I wish Cooking would just drop down to 200... or if they started showing less competitions on Food Network.
Well, the lower tier position was a part of the new contract, so even if it's not in 120 now, it will be soon. Once it's in 120, I may just save 10 bucks a month.
It is not listed on channel 103 or on the Dish Perks Free Preview page on the website. Does anybody know how long this preview will last?
Maybe this stealth preview really is the move to AT120 as stipulated in the new contract. Think about it, not listed as changed and no promotion by Dish. Fox wanted FBN in 120, increasing the national subscriber base, more potential eyeballs and more revenue from Dish and advertisers. Dish gets a big fat nothing except a weaker AT200 and fewer subs on that tier. The only thing Dish got was a signed contract to end the Fox News pain.
FBN got a total of 68,000 viewers last Thursday, 3/19. I doubt very much if many people are paying extra for AT200 just to watch it.
Yep. And even bigger win for Fox. Nearly nobody watching while a significant increase in the number of subs Fox charges Dish for per month.
