I read this in the paper.

The article reads...

"Retirees Bob and Kathleen hiller, of Munhall, have watched KDKA-TV's noon news broadcast for years. But when longtime DISH Network subscribers tuned in looking for local news, they saw a DISH company executive explaining that the network could no longer carry KDKA programming. As many as 9 million satelite custsomers in all 50 states lost the Viacom owned cable networks, and 1.6 million of them also lost CBS station because of a dispute over pricing between Viacom Inc, parent of CBS, and EchoStar Communications corp., that satelite provider that no longer owns DISH network. Other channels no longer available included were MTV, Nickelodeon, Comedy Central, B.E.T., Noggin, and VH1."

I'm not gonna type the whole thing because it's like 4 pages long, but this still gives you a good idea of what's happening.

Damn them, and we were thinkin' about getting DirectTV which is a DISH.
