its a sports type channel, dish doesn't care

 

[bnewt]

since we lost another hd station............is there a replacement?

 

[HDRoberts]

Actually, it seems it was a channel very few watched, so Dish dropped it. They did the same thing to Smithsonian over a year ago.

Doesn't seem to bode well for just launched Veira HD, as I doubt it will be viewed more than WFN.

Perhaps you can offer an explanation as to why the press release indicated explicitly that WFN HD would remain part of Platinum HD and now it is gone?

In order to determine if there's been a breach of contract, you'd have to read the contract - - - - not a press release.

Shoulda never had it in the first place. That was just one of those "HD" channels to pad the numbers when they killed VOOM. Now, if they would just get rid of the rest of the "HD" padding.

Certainly.

The idea that it was a joint press release implies that both parties were on board with the claims made in the press release.

I disagree. WFN filled a void and brought a lot more beautiful HD content than many of the other so-called HD channels.

Bingo.
