Dish Network Drops Cartoon Network

Cartoon NetworkAs of midnight on October 21, Dish Network has failed to reach an agreement with Turner Broadcasting for networks including Cartoon Network and Boomerang.

Here’s the spin from Turner:

Despite our best efforts, we were unable to reach an agreement with Dish Network, and they have unilaterally decided to pull CNN, Cartoon Network, Adult Swim, truTV, TCM, HLN, CNN en Espanol and Boomerang off the air upon the expiration of our current deal. Turner has worked diligently for months to come to a fair agreement including multiple extensions and compromises, and it’s unfortunate that Dish is once again operating in a disruptive manner that takes away networks and programming from their customers. We are hopeful our counterparts will return to the negotiating table, and we’ll get a deal completed.
