==== EchoStar merger ====
In August 2023, EchoStar announced that it would acquire DISH Network in an all-stock purchase, undoing their previous split. The acquisition, which was completed December 31, 2023, was part of an effort to bolster the company's wireless business, with Ergen stating that it would allow them to offer "an enhanced consumer connectivity business". As Ergen already held 90% of the voting stock in both companies, the FCC considered the "acquisition" to be a reorganization of assets with no change in effective control.<ref>{{cite news | url=https://www.theverge.com/2024/1/2/24022413/dish-network-echostar-acquisition-5g-boost-mobile-wireless | title=Dish Network rejoins EchoStar as it tries to compete in 5G | first=Wes | last=Davis | work=[[The Verge]] | date=January 2, 2024}}</ref><ref>{{Cite news | url=https://www.thewrap.com/echostar-dish-network-acqusition-complete/ | title=EchoStar Completes Dish Network Acquisition: A New Era of Connectivity | first=Eileen AJ | last=Connelly | work=[[TheWrap]] | date=January 2, 2024}}</ref>
