DISH removed the Ovation Channel!
How dare they? It was my favorite channel. I watched most Ovation programs, and I especially looked forward to The Artful Detective.
I am going to send DISH an email and give them a good talking to.

I'll do that. 
posting on the Ovation Facebook page how furious I was that DISH dropped them. Ovation thanked me and sent me the same link you just posted. So, at the request of Ovation, I sent them a letter which they'd said they'll forward to DISH.
Earlier, I'd left a message at the DISH website, and DISH replied it was all Ovation's fault:
"Please be advised We've been unable to reach an agreement. Programmer is being unreasonable/greedy, programmer chose to impact customers/take away programming. We didn't inform you earlier - we usually resolve. We didn't inform you earlier - programmer surprised us late."
Ovation told me it was DISH's fault, not Ovation's, and that DISH was greedy.
They remind me of my kids when they were little. "He did it!" Nuh-uhh, he did it!" "Nuh-uhh, he did it!"
