Cordillera, Dish End Blackout, Sign new Carriage Agreement

A three-day blackout of Cordillera Communications-owned stations on Dish Network ended Sunday as the sides signed a new multiyear carriage agreement, they said in news releases Sunday. Terms weren't disclosed, though each side had complained the other wasn't seeking fair, market-based rates (see 1601070057). The blackout involved 11 channels in eight states.
