Dish Network and Fox Corporation were able to come to terms last weekend, ending the blackout of Fox owned-and-operated local stations, as well as FS1, FS2, BTN, Fox Soccer Plus and Fox Deportes.

Dish is no stranger to disputes with content providers, and its feud with AT&T-owned HBO is nearing the one-year mark.
