T.L. Hughes 746 Posted January 24 Share Posted January 24 Mission Broadcasting stations will return to Dish Network about a year after they were pulled as the companies have reached a new carriage arrangement. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Megatron81 179 Posted January 24 Share Posted January 24 I thought that Dish & Mission was dark since the fall of 2022 or was that DirecTV which is still dark. I think that has to do with the lawsuit once that gets settled maybe a deal gets done. I'm surprised that Dish didn't take Mission to court like DirecTV is doing.

Mission's stations were pulled from Dish in early January 2023, so 54 weeks have passed between the start and resolution of the dispute. Mission's dispute with DirecTV began three months before the Dish dispute. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DENDude 184 Posted January 27 Share Posted January 27 White Knight Broadcasting's 2 stations remain dark on Dish, according to Dish Network. They were pulled the same day as the mission broadcasting stations. Friday January 6, 2023. It must suck to be White Knight. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AmericanErrorist 100 Posted February 1 Share Posted February 1 (edited) All told, a number of satellite viewers are going to be stuck watching the Super Bowl either on OTA or the Nickelodeon broadcast. (Surprised the CBS affiliate body allowed Nick to cut in on their biggest day in 4 years.) Edited February 2 by AmericanErrorist 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paramount likely figured the Nick simulcast would add viewership, boosting total ratings for the Super Bowl, rather than cannibalize the CBS viewership, given their different demographics. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So now both satellite providers do not have the Cox-owned stations on their systems. And I don't expect a quick resolution to this because the dispute with Dish has been happening for well over a year now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
