Disney's networks are back on Dish following a 'handshake agreement'
"We have reached a handshake agreement with Dish/Sling TV, which properly reflects fair market value and terms for The Walt Disney Company’s... content," a Disney spokesperson said in a statement."As a result, we are pleased to restore our portfolio of networks on a temporary basis while both parties work to finalize a new deal."
Dish had accused Disney of holding"viewers hostage for negotiation leverage, claiming that it wanted to include ESPN and ESPN2 into non-sports packages." At the same time, Disney said Dish failed to give it a fair offer to keep ESPN and National Geographic on Dish/Sling TV.
