Dish Net likely to drop Comcast RSNs
Here's the official statement from Comcast:
“With the upcoming expiration of our agreements, we are growing increasingly concerned that DISH is not willing to work toward mutually acceptable terms for continuing carriage of NBC Sports Group’s portfolio of Comcast SportsNet regional networks. This unwillingness to recognize the value that live sports delivers, and meet terms that have already been established with our other distribution partners, is putting DISH customers at risk of losing access to Comcast SportsNet’s live game coverage and comprehensive sports news. We feel that the time has come to inform our networks’ passionate viewers of teams from Chicago, Washington DC, Baltimore, San Francisco and Sacramento that they may soon be unable to watch their favorite NBA, NHL, MLB and MLS teams via DISH’s service.”
