Viacom is back [Dish Network]
Dish Network Agreement [Viacom]

Well it was fun while it lasted. I'm hoping this means Echostar coughed up the extra six cents, but of course neither party mentions it. Viacom says they got Echostar to accept Nicktoons, which represents at least a small victory. I'll keep researching, but if anyone uncovers the details of the new arrangement, I'd love to hear.

Update: EchoStar ends Viacom dispute, reveals SEC probe [Reuters]

Looks like Viacom mostly got its way, and EchoStar is under SEC investigation for unrelated shady business (alluded to in Tuesday's Viacom statement). Also, it seems I've been misspelling EchoStar with a little 's'. So? Screw them!
