Fisher and DISH Resolve Retrans Differences

Fisher Communications and DISH Network finally resolved their differences for the distribution of 10 Fisher TV stations in seven markets.

As part of the multi-year agreement, announced Thursday (June 11), the ongoing litigation between the two parties was ended.

The 10 Fisher stations in markets such as Seattle and Portland, Ore., have been dark on the satellite TV service since Dec. 17. During the dispute, Fisher accused DISH of reneging on a retransmission reached in principle and filed a $1 million breach of contract lawsuit.
