My mother has the Welcome Pack...her old receiver was dying, so we put a new receiver on her account. No news channels...not even MSNBC, even though it appears under the Welcome Pack on the Dish website.
Forgot about Bloomberg...she does get that one. But MSNBC shows up red in the program guide. She gets all the other channels listed in the Welcome Pack, so I don't think it's a dish pointing issue.
I will have to call Dish, I guess.
