Dish

Dish doesn’t want its customers to concern themselves as much with a lost TV remote, as the company has announced that it will be adding Google Assistant capabilities in the coming months.

While LPTVs can qualify for cable carriage rights, no such rules exist for satellite.

Dish customers can now go hands free when watching TV thanks to added support of Amazon’s Alexa voice control to all Hopper “Joey” clients.

CBS said that at 11:59 p.m. MT on Nov. 20 its stations were dropped by Dish as a renewal of their retransmission consent agreement had not been reached.

Deal was done in time for viewers to watch NFL’s Sunday games.

The deal comes as AT&T is fighting a U.S. Justice Department appeal of a court’s decision to approve AT&T’s acquisition of Time Warner.

Organizations say the "unnecessary" rule has allowed DBS providers to use it as a loophole through which to drop carriage.

Meredith stations in 12 markets had been off-air since July.

Tribune’s blackout of its 42 local stations and WGN America across 33 Dish markets continues, as Tribune says that it has not heard anything from Dish in regards to negotiating a new contract.

The NFL Network is once again apart of the Dish team, as Dish Network announced that it has signed a multi-year agreement with the NFL Network for carriage of both the NFL Network and RedZone.
