What's the deal? Sunday morning, no Fox. I call them and they say they're re- negotiating with Fox. They don't want to raise their fees for the customers. They don't know how long it will take. I think I'll switch to Direct. Any ideas from anyone?

Of course. The president and his minions don't want people to know what is going on so they falsely demonize Fox News and probably put pressure on those that carry it.

I dropped cable years ago after dealing with comcast.

Many people I knew went back to the antenna.

I switched to Netflix and my wallet and I are both much happier. I use a VPN so I can view it in any country I happen to be doing business in.

I don't miss the daily propaganda either (MSNBC etc.).

Best wishes on getting your Fox viewing back. It's the least biased news network there is.

I truly thought when the 2012 e******n was being illegally controlled by the "Tax Exempt" section of the IRS [Lois Lerner's crowd] of the progressive wing of liberalism, FOX and Rush [Conservative broadcasting, in general] would certainly be second on the list to deactivate; and the patriotic outcries would be overwhelming. If you remember, one of Alinsky's main "Rules," was to
eliminate all but the state-run media; much
like our MM, "drive-by," "alphabet channels."

Poor Hugo Chavez neglected to do that on [his] first run at [his] very own "Democracy" [as the progressives love to call Dictatorships], and missed-the-boat. Time to send in the anti-American troops residing in America; mostly attached to the SDS and CPUSA, and all [they] had to do was intimidate [or k**l] the more conservative broadcasters' on TV and Radio Venezuela, and ba-da-bing. No more problems for Hugo. Venezuela was [his] brand-new "Democracy!!!"

What to do in America to keep our current progressive "movement," from turning US into Venezuela North [and Cuba West] is presented by our Founding Fathers and "the hand of the divine," in our Constitution and Bill of Rights. "WE" can alert a gigantic group of true patriotic attorneys who will work "pro-Bono" for patriotic causes, in HUGE, "Class Action" law suits; and sue [their] golf balls off!!!

Each time you see even a tiny change in conservative broadcasting, call [or email] any conservative broadcasting outlet or "Foundation," and let them know that "the creep" may be starting. Very important, because the deceptive analogy of the Marx, Alinsky, Cloward and Pivon, ad indigestion, ideology is to slither into the free market, Western culture and quietly take everything [they] can; guns, free-speech, conservative messaging, God, education, business and government; and anything else along the way. So, stop the creeps, stop "the creep!!!"

Currently I have no TV subscription locally, but my son has Bright-house in Florida and I am able to access Fox News on my IPad using his password and log in. Does anyone know how to contact the Big Guy at Fox News?

Each side has its own view, but I know that DISH has a history of conflicts with program providers. It is also getting swamped with calls from upset subscribers. I have Direct TV so we still get FOX.

Just email one of the FOX programs like Greg Gutfeld at FOX@FIVE. At the end of each program the announcer lets you know how to contact their program, and "if you don't get FOX [wh**ever] "DEMAND IT!!!" [Neil Cavuto].

Yes I like Neil among others. I had Dish but dropped it - very expensive for about 10 channels and the rest infomercials.

They all have done this at one time or another but Dish has a track record of disappointing customers the most.

The first year their price was fine but the second and so on not so hot. Heavy rain, find something else to do.

If you can get FIOS (Verizon) their running a package (several) that offers all the movie channels plus, 75 Mbps and phone for $145.

I checked with Direct and looks like they have a better deal.

Look close, that second year the deal becomes expensive. No phone, no internet.

U-Verse is great. The only thing I'm unhappy with is they don't have the Hallmark Channel. But otherwise, they've been the best we've had.
