Dish Network Authentication - bkc302 - 2013-11-12

I have a link to a local channel live stream - http://graywkytlive-i.akamaihd.net/hls/live/206585/WKYT/qa/232k/prog.m3u8

but that only plays the news when it is playing live, any other time it plays advertising. I found this link in a java script file which contained the following code -

anvatoVideoJSONLoaded ( {"upload_id":"c5","def_title":"WKYT - Lexington","def_callsign":"WKYT","video_type":"2","src_image_url":"","src_logo_url":"","published_urls":[{"embed_url":"http:\/\/graywkytlive-i.akamaihd.net\/hls\/live\/206585\/WKYT\/qa\/master.m3u8","format":"m3u8-variant","kbps":0,"cdn_name":"Akamai","format_name":"m3u8-variant","width":0,"height":0,"cdn_id":-1,"protocol":"http"},{"embed_url":"rtsp:\/\/a1196.l21068153195.c210681.n.lq.akamaistream.net\/D\/1196\/210681\/v0001\/reflector:53195.sdp","format":"rtsp","kbps":0,"cdn_name":"Akamai","format_name":"rtsp","width":0,"height":0,"cdn_id":-1,"protocol":"rtsp"},{"embed_url":"http:\/\/graywkytlive-lh.akamaihd.net\/z\/nwWKYT_1@97907\/manifest.f4m","format":"hds-mbr","kbps":0,"cdn_name":"Akamai","format_name":"hds-mbr","width":0,"height":0,"cdn_id":-1,"protocol":"http"}],"logo_settings":[],"access_rules":[{"name":"Advantage Window - 7 day","access":"private","exceptions":{"match":"all","condition":[{"scope":"period","value":"publish_date+0:7"}]}},{"name":"Authenticate with Dish","access":"private","exceptions":{"match":"any","condition":[{"scope":"mvpd","value":"dish_network"}]}}]} )


I have a dish network account. What does the "Authenticate with Dish" do? the web page with the live stream have no place where I can enter my dish network user name and and password. Any help is appreciated.
