Tribune endorses the comments filed by the National Association of Broadcasters2, and submits these comments to underscore the importance of retaining the Commission’s network nonduplication and syndicated exclusivity rules3, which are essential to the health of local television stations and their ability to serve the public. The Commission’s program exclusivity rules are well established, long predating the 1992 Cable Act that permitted television stations to consent to retransmission of their signals. They have an independent justification that is interwoven with copyright and communications 1. Tribune, through subsidiaries, owns 23 network-affiliated television stations, a regional cable news network, a national superstation and a national multicast network, Antenna TV. Only one of Tribune’s stations is a primary-channel affiliate of a network that programs a majority of the broadcast day. Accordingly, Tribune stations acquire, and their financial health depends on, substantial amounts of syndicated programming, in addition to local news and live sports programs in some markets. 2. Filed May 27, 2011. 3. Sometimes referred to below as the “program exclusivity rules.” policy. And until very recently, they were seldom the target of criticism, let alone hostility. Broadcasters, cable and satellite providers apply them as a matter of routine every day.

Analysis of Changes in Basic Cable TV Programming Costs Prepared by: Robert Gessner President Massillon Cable TV, Inc. Massillon, OH Phone: 330-833-5509 Email: [email protected] November 5, 2013 1 Analysis of Changes in Basic Cable TV Programming Costs It is important to note that all of this information is specific to MCTV. Our costs are unique to the extent that we offer our customers a set of networks and channels that differs from others. We also may have different costs for program content due to different outcomes of negotiations. However, I am confident you will find that the facts presented are an accurate representation of the current costs of Basic Cable TV programming, the increase in costs expected in 2014 and the rest of this decade for any independent cable TV company in the US. I believe any other cable TV company will report similar increases in cost, contract terms and conditions, and expectations for the future. 2 Analysis of Changes in Basic Cable TV Programming Costs Contents Executive Summary ........................................................................................................ 4 Expect Large Increases ............................................................................................... 4 There Are No “Local” TV Stations in NE Ohio ............................................................. 4 Seven Major Media Companies Control US TV ........................................................... 4 Contracts Are Becoming More Restrictive ..................................................................

The Commission has before it for consideration the unopposed application by San Diego Television, Inc., Debtor-in-Possession (SDT), to assign the license for KTTY(TV), Channel 69 (Ind.), San Diego, California, to KTTY, Inc. KTTY, Inc. is wholly-owned by Tribune Broadcasting Company (Tribune) which owns all of the capital stock of KTLA, Inc., licensee of KTLA(TV), Channel 5 (Ind.), Los Angeles, California. Because the Grade B contour of KTTY(TV) overlaps with the Grade B contour of KTLA(TV), the applicant seeks a permanent waiver of Section 73.3555(b) of the Commission©s rules, the duopoly rule, to allow common ownership of the two stations. BACKGROUND 2. The instant assignment application has been filed pursuant to an order issued by the United States Bankruptcy Court for the Central District of California on August 29, 1995. Order. No. 94-14176-CA (Bankr. C.D. Cal.).

Among these applications were three that, rather than transfer broadcast television licenses in Chicago, Dallas, and Houston directly to Sinclair, proposed to transfer these licenses to other entities.2 The record raises significant questions as to whether those proposed divestitures were in fact “sham” transactions.
