Post subject: | Dish Network and the Weather Channel |
It is being said that Dish Network was thinking about dropping the Weather Channel and replacing it with The Weather Cast, which they produce themselves. The reasoning for this move is, 1. Weather Channel's cost is going up, and 2. Dishnet growing tired of what they are calling "Weather-tainment." The Weather Channel has actually added movies to their lineup and has already had a conflict when a movie and severe weather was occurring. Being a big time hater of TWC, I applaud Dish although it looks like they are going to chicken out now. Dang it. |

What's wrong with just having the weather? I don't get why people feel they need to trick shit up to try and squeeze out every frakin' penny they can on something. So they have a little success with a 24 hour weather channel. What do you do with a little success? Throw a bunch of money at it and trick it up to try and make even more money. All of your operation costs rise but your revenue doesn't because IT'S THE FUCKING WEATHER CHANNEL and while you're bordering on bankruptcy you're bought for pennies on the dollar. Way to kill the golden goose. |

You guys say that now, but what if they came out with an awesome original movie called Blood Tornado? |

Well, rats. TWC and Dish came to an agreement and the attempt by Dish to have their own weather channel has been discontinued. Really sorry about the staffers who lost their jobs. http://press.weather.com/press_detail.asp?id=296 To sum it up, TWC is going to develop another channel that will be more devoted to weather. |

Looks like Direct TV and the Weather Channel have locked horns. I use Dish instead of Direct TV. I wish Dish would do the same thing. I really hate the Weather Channel. The Texas Storm Chasers have weighed in on the side of Direct TV. http://www.texasstormchasers.com/2014/0 ... -directtv/ |

Just now noticed this. About a month ago, the Weather Channel cut their morning fuckup show with Al Roker and some staff. They also announced they aren't developing any more reality shows, but will still be sparing us to death with the ones that are already there. In the past two years, they have lost 10 percent of their subscribers. I guess this is supposedly more cord cutting. Whatever it is, fuck those guys. And fuck Jim Cantore from now on. |

A few months ago I was at mom's and she had TWC on. Dave Schwartz was doing the weather and he looked like he had aged a lot. Even though I hate that damn station, I still loved Dave because he would occasionally say funny stuff. He died Saturday. It took the big C three tries to get him, but it did. Stay hard, Dave. |

It appears that the Weather Channel was the victim of some sort of cyber attack today, and it knocked live programming off the air for about 90 minutes. An Atlanta TV station claimed it was ransomware, and it does sound like ransomware, but that is unconfirmed. I swear it wasn't me. This time. https://www.bleepingcomputer.com/news/s ... f-the-air/ |
