Dish Network Buy Out ?

I was looking at the daily stock market today for Dish Network(EchoStar) and the stock went UP.Then I read below in a recent article saying that there's been a high suspicion that Charlie Ergen
might be selling Dish Network..since he's allowed people who work beneath him to take over the controls and desicions...so there's talk of another company buying Dish..do you think Directv might do that or some cable company..Voom was owned by a cable company and they got in the satelite business. :confused:

Direct buy Dish - HELL No !!
remember, Dish wanted to buy Direct from GM/Hughes and the government said no way.

fred

btw, you were looking at E stock on the market. Thus, the public owns E!!!! (except for Charlie's and Jim's shares)

I just said it the way it was written at the stock report website.. By the way...I remember a few years ago when Dish and Directv wanted to become One company and they were turned down by the FCC.
