FOXNEWS (#1 around the world) caves in to DISH. (I'm sure the libtards will conclude that)

3 Reasons Fox News Is Big Winner in Dish Network Dispute

As reported here, Fox’s ratings dipped a bit due to the blackout while still comfortably holding top spot in the cable news race, but Dish (14 million subscribers) reportedly lost tens of thousands of customers (Carry estimated 90,000 at one point) directly due to this dispute, resulting in tens of millions in losses if a majority had a typical package for Dish (paying $99.00-$127.00 per month). When the dust settled, Fox had the luxury of audience devotion and familiar faces on the front lines, while Dish was just another faceless, hated cable provider in the same way Comcast, Time Warner and Cablevision are. And when Dish follows the same route that these other entities have when subscriber fees go way up for a major channel, guess who will be paying for it? Dish customers, of course. And guess who will get the blame? The company with its name on the bill.

Fox News is back on Dish Network. Fox Business Network will now live next door. Dish claims extortion in negotiations and loses tens of thousands of customers in the process who likely won’t be coming back, while Fox walks away with 50 percent more than what it had three weeks ago.
