Ok, it may sound crazy but locally we can't get CBS anymore on Dish now. Why not Add Liberty network? Yes they would need more programing! Let's start with the "Christian ponder and Samantha Realty show"....... Let's be honest Christian ponder has 11 more games left in the National football league before becoming a second string QB! Timing is of the essence! LIBERTY SPEND MORE MONEY GET ON DISH!!! .....I need the ODU game :(

Can you please save all your great ideas for the offseason?

By the way, it's not CBS, it's just Media General stations.

Yeah because obviously the Liberty Network will be an outstanding replacement for such notable shows as How I Met Your Mother and Big Bang Theory.

To my knowledge, CBS is not being effected by Media General. It's NBC.

There are a number of MG stations affected by the dispute with DISH. Depends where you are as to what network it is. Locally (Central/SW VA) it is NBC. Other stations elsewhere could be CBS or others. I saw where MG is allowing some of their stations on DISH in the Gulf area for the next couple days where the tropical storm/hurricane may hit. Once the danger is past they will be back off of DISH.
