I don't actively watch the stations they have now black listed but I am pissed at the childish shit being pulled by both sides. I still haven't decided what I want to do, but if I do end up calling Dish, they will be speaking with angry bitch Brittany and not nice on the phone Brittany. Lets hope they keep me on hold for 30 min. so I have time to get real mad.

Viacom says .03 to .06 cents increase, Dish says 40%. Who you gonna believe. Dish says put it in writing the .06 and the contract is signed.

Another point is the Viacom owned CBS stations (luckily Oklahoma's is independently owned ) are being packaged into the deal. I can see Dish networks point. Why should the rest of the subscribers pay for a channel they can't legally recieve.

They better figure something out before March Madness or the phone lines are going to melt for both companies.
