Amen to E* to standing up to Fisher's demands for an 80% increase for carriage fee. Fisher also has sued for back payment for something they're not even entitled to from previous contracts with stations that Fisher has since bought out.

All mediums (provider types) could see huge increases in fees if the sort of fees that Fisher wants go through ...

I won't get the games in HD, but being outside of broadcast area, I qualify for distant network feeds that I pay for extra and carry both Atlanta and SF ABC feeds to our Dish receiver ... so I'll at least get to watch them

I've already sent Fisher a nasty note regarding their position and told them I don't care if they ever come back ... it'll be their ad revenues that take a big hit in the long run. We only watch Grey's & Lost on ABC and we can bittorrent those in HD ... we rarely watch shows the same night anyhow .. usually catch up on days off.

Screw Fisher ... Kudos to Dish for standing up to their demands!!!!
