Dish Network customers lost access to CNN, Turner Classic Movies, and a handful of other channels late Monday as the result of a contract dispute with Turner Broadcasting.

Turner Broadcasting, which licenses the channels for distribution to subscription services, pulled the channels from Dish's lineup upon the expiration of its current deal with the satellite service after the two companies were unable to negotiate renewed distribution terms. Other channels removed from Dish include Boomerang, Cartoon Network, CNN en Espanol, Headline News, and truTV.

Dish, which has about 14 million subscribers, said the channels were removed after Turner refused to extend the current agreement.

It's not just CNN, it about 10 other stations that won't be on DISH Network. HLN and TruTV are also now gone.
