Viper550 294 Posted June 7, 2012 Posted June 7, 2012 http://www.latimes.com/entertainment/envelope/cotown/la-et-dish-hoak-20120606,0,1493640.story?track=rss Hoak pulled its channels in a carriage dispute with Dish Network yesterday evening. They demanded a 200% increase in fees, probably to make up for the commercials that can be skipped over with its new Hopper DVR (which is a feature they also want gone too, along with the big four networks)
Samantha 2907 Posted June 8, 2012 Posted June 8, 2012 Did KAUZ go? Hoak owns that station in license only (KSWO-TV owns all of the other KAUZ assets). Charlie Ergen's rough rider model can lead to these long retrans disputes.
stevieboy247 43 Posted June 8, 2012 Posted June 8, 2012 A 200% increase in fees?? Talk about corporate selfishness.
