Dish Network Win And Loss

After aggressive subscription and package cuts, DISH Network has added just shy of 250,000 new subscribers.  While the new customers is a plus, DISH was still marred by a 17.5% drop in net income when compared to a year ago.  While the share difference of a year ago was eight cents less, it was still eight cents more than analysts had been forecasting for the fourth quarter.  As a result, revenue for the company rose ever so slightly by 1.4% to $2.96B, just slightly ahead of what was projected.
