Disney And Dish Reach Short-Term Deal To Continue Retrans Talks Oct 1st 2013, 00:13, by THE DEADLINE TEAM The two companies said today that they have reached a short-term extension of their carriage contract to keep Disney‘s channels on Dish Network‘s systems. The sides say talks will continue on a contract first inked in 2005 and set to expire at the end of the month. At stake is the continued carriage of ESPN; Disney Channel; ABC Family and other Disney networks; and ABC-owned stations in New York, Los Angeles, Chicago, Philadelphia, San Francisco, Houston, Raleigh-Durham and Fresno. No other details were announced. The deal comes just less than a month after Time Warner Cable and CBS settled their retrans dispute that cost TWC customers 32 days of CBS programming. That impasse was widely believed to be broken by the start of the lucrative NFL season, so it’s notable that ESPN has Monday Night Football in its corner. Another wrinkle: ABC is suing Dish over its ad-skipping Hopper DVR.
