NFL, Fox, and Cable Tv

Did anybody catch the game yesterday? I didn't due to unfortunate events or black-out channel with particular cable tv. I’m sure a lot of football fans could not watch the game—unless they stream live. And you tried to view the channel a lovely person would explain to you why the NFL is no longer available. “We offered Fox to extend the contract, with payment, until after the Super Bowl on February 2 to ensure the best possible customer experience for the remainder of the NFL season, but Apollo & Fox refused this offer (my.dish.com). They go on to say that Fox does not care about the consumer and only thinking about making money “they don’t care how high a customer’s bill gets and are just trying to squeeze every last penny out of consumers to recoup the billions they spent on buying these stations.” but Dish actual cares about their customers. Sounds kind of fishy to me. The statement continues to say Dish offered Fox to continue playing the games while the ongoing negations. However, the same statement from Fox "Dish elected to drop Fox networks in an effort to coerce us to agree to outrageous demands. While we regret this is Dish's preferred approach to negotiating, we remind our loyal viewers that the Fox services are widely available through every other major television provider" (sportingnews .com). It sounds like the companies are greedy and are taking advantage of the situation. And more than likely have customers seek out streaming solutions.
