Maybe Hearst took a clue from the Weather Channel's debacle with DirecTV.

As FTVLive told you, last night Dish pulled the plug on the Hearst stations after the two sides could not agree on a retrans deal.

Now Hearst is back on the bird after reached a retransmission agreement with Dish Network.

“We appreciate the support and patience of our viewers, advertisers and local communities served by our stations,” Hearst said in a statement. “We regret the inconvenience they’ve experienced over the past several hours. We are pleased the interruption was brief and that our stations have been restored on Dish Network systems.”
