Sling TV CEO Lynch dishes on how programmers embraced mobile TV viewing

As executive vice president of advanced technologies for Dish Network (NASDAQ: DISH), Roger Lynch began developing pay TV's first over-the-top service, Sling TV, several years ago, and has been on the leading edge of changing attitudes over how and when people consume TV content.
