Dish Network dumps another channel; could 'Swingtown' be next?

GoltvThe Dish Network has shed yet another channel. GolTV, a Spanish-language soccer net, got booted last week at the same time Dish was dumping the signals of four local Midwestern stations. As usual, the fight was about money -- that is, how much Dish had to pay to carry GolTV. At this rate, there might be nothing left on Dish's satellite service by Christmas except home shopping channels and porn. Not that there's anything wrong with cubic zirconium or naked people, you understand. Wait, somebody just handed me the ratings for Friday's episode of Swingtown -- just 4.3 million viewers, a new low. Okay. As I was saying, not that there's anything wrong with cubic zirconium.
