Dish Network Reaches Late Extension to Keep E!, Style On Air

Dish Network and Comcast reached a last-minute extension agreement Friday to keep E! and Style on the air, Deadline reports.

Will E! and Style get pulled off Dish Network?

Both cable channels would have gone black in Dish subscriber homes at midnight if a deal was not reached, but the two companies will continue negotiations. The short-term agreement is "in hopes of reaching a long term solution," E! and Style said in a statement.

In October, Dish Network subscribers lost FX, National Geographic Channel and Fox's 19 regional sports networks for 28 days when the satellite provider was engaged in heated negotiations with Fox for a new carriage deal.
