By this Notice we remind all MVPDs of this recurring obligation, provide details on the filing process, and identify those MVPDs that must complete the Supplementary Investigation Sheet portion of the form.

Penney Eric Breisach General Counsel WaveDivision Holdings, LLC Breisach Cordell PLLC 401 Parkplace Center, Suite 500 5335 Wisconsin Ave., NW, Suite 440 Kirkland, WA 98033 Washington, DC 20015 (425) 896-1891 (202) 751-2701 Its Attorneys Date: December 19, 2017 SUMMARY This Petition is about the conduct of three Comcast-owned regional sports networks whose deliberate actions undermined the fundamental structure of their distribution agreements with a cable operator and then, when the operator could no longer meet minimum contractual penetration percentages, presented the operator with a Hobson’s choice: (1) restructure its services through a forced bundling scheme in a way that would make them commercially and competitively unviable; or (2) face shut-off of the services four days later. These efforts to hinder significantly or prevent the operator from providing this programming are not only prohibited by 47 U.S.C. 548(b), but are particularly egregious because they are taken against the only terrestrial competitor to Comcast’s cable systems in the areas served by the cable operator. It was only after the Comcast regional sports networks extracted a payment of approximately $2.4 million and a promise to pay even more on an ongoing basis – amounts far in excess of what would have been required by the distribution agreements, was the imminent threat to withhold the services withdrawn.

To further empower voice providers to combat illegal and unwanted robocalls, the Commission should also (i) adopt a broad call blocking safe harbor and (ii) establish a centrally compiled and maintained Critical Calls List. I. Cable Operators Work Diligently to Protect Their Customers from Illegal and Unwanted Robocalls As leading providers of state-of-the-art competitive voice service, cable operators share the Commission’s and the public’s deep concern about harmful and illegal robocalls. NCTA’s members understand that these calls are more than just a nuisance, and they have devoted significant time and resources to developing and implementing solutions to combat them. 1 Consumer and Governmental Affairs Bureau Seeks Input for Report on Call Blocking, Public Notice, CG Docket No. 17-59, WC Docket No. 17-97, DA 19-1312 (rel.
