The running battle between them is keeping the broadcast of Kansas City station off the satellite network. Around 5 million customers of Dish Network, who watch 42 television stations of Tribune in 33 markets around the country, faced similar disruptions.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Even if you try to watch the game via antenna, then the show will appear pixelated. In order to avoid interfering with the signal, antenna users will have to sit very still while watching the game. A dish customer said that \u201cWe\u2019re all sitting perfectly still on our sectional so that we don\u2019t disrupt it. It is ridiculous. For the love of the game you do some pretty weird stuff.\u201d<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">\u201cWe\u2019re really huge baseball fans and it\u2019s upsetting that we can\u2019t watch the game clearly,\u201d he added. \u201cThese are multi-billion-dollar corporations, probably, having a tantrum with one another, and we\u2019re the ones missing out.\u201d<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Tribune Broadcasting\u2019s senior vice president of corporate relations, Gary Weitman, said, \u201cWe\u2019re still negotiating but, without getting too much into the weeds, this is difficult.\u201d As of now, Dish customers have to go to neighbors\u2019 homes, bars, or other venues broadcasting Fox Network to watch the games.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Some of the Dish customers, who have missed the games, have expressed their plans to leave the satellite TV network and move to another alternative. Sooner the dispute ends, better for the Dish and the subscribers.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_796\" style=\"width: 310px\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.thetripleplay.net\/\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-796\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-796\" class=\"wp-image-796 size-medium\" title=\"Tribune Media Dispute\" src=\"https:\/\/www.thetripleplay.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/07\/Dish-Network-Channel-Guide-300x168.jpg\" alt=\"Dish Network Channel Guide\" width=\"300\" height=\"168\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.thetripleplay.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/07\/Dish-Network-Channel-Guide-300x168.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.thetripleplay.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/07\/Dish-Network-Channel-Guide.jpg 625w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-796\" class=\"wp-caption-text\"><em><strong>Dish Network Channels <\/strong><\/em><\/p><\/div>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Tribune\u2019s stations blacked out of Dish Network when the satellite TV provider couldn\u2019t come to terms with the fee that Tribune Media asked for broadcasting its stations. According to Dish Network, Tribune was seeking unreasonable fee increase for its local channels, when they are available for free by using an antenna. The satellite broadcaster said that the increased price for WGN America couldn\u2019t be accepted because the rating of the channel has gone down.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">\u00a0\u201cTribune is using local viewers as leverage to raise rates for WGN America \u2013 a channel that is in decline,\u201d said Warren Schlichting, Executive vice president of programming for Dish Network.
