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of what would have been required by the distribution agreements, was the imminent threat to withhold the services withdrawn.

  • Viewing Decision, to Provide More Extensive Programming Information and Parental Tools As They Are Developed by CSM
    REDACTED - FOR PUBLIC INSPECTION viewing decision, to provide more extensive programming information and parental tools as they are developed by CSM. In addition, Comcast and CSM have been exploring cooperative efforts to develop digital literacy and media education programs that will provide parents, teachers, and children with the tools and information to help them become smart, safe, and responsible users ofbroadband services. Any responsive documents have been produced herewith. 59. Provide a detailed description and explanation of the Company's plans for providing and increasing Spanish language programming, and provide all analyses and studies that have been prepared regarding such plans. Comcast has a strong record ofproviding diverse, high-quality national and local programming for Latino customers. Today, Comcast provides a nationally standardized package ofmore than 50 Latino cable networks to the majority ofits systems (coupled with local broadcast stations and multicast channels, Comcast provides more than 60 Latino programming channels in some markets). It is by far the largest such offering provided by any MVPD, and includes a diverse mix ofgeneral entertainment, kids, news, sports, and movie networks. The proposed transaction with NBCU will enable Comcast to provide even more high­ quality programming, across multiple platforms, to its Latino customers. Applicants have offered a number ofvoluntary commitments designed to ensure that these benefits will be achieved, and have proposed that the Commission adopt these commitments as binding, enforceable conditions ofan order approving the transaction. Applicants have discussed ways beyond these commitments in which they could further increase Spanish-language programming choices for consumers. However, because the proposed transaction has not yet been consummated and the companies have not yet been combined, their plans have not yet been finalized (beyond the commitments set forth in the Public Interest Statement).

Introduction On August 26, 2011, WaveDivision I, LLC (“Wave I”) and Broadstripe LLC (“Broadstripe”) filed an application Form 3941 with the Office of Cable Communications (“OCC”) requesting approval of the transfer of Broadstripe assets to Wave-I. Under federal law, the City of Seattle (“City”) has 120 days from the date of a completed transfer application to approve, approve with conditions, or deny the transfer. If the City fails to act within the specified 120 period, by operation of law, the City will be deemed to have consented to the transfer. Consistent with this requirement the City’s decision regarding the transfer request must be effective by December 24, 2011. Council is expected to vote on the transfer request on November 21, 2011. A public hearing is required before Council can take final action on the transfer request and one has been scheduled for November 9, 2011 at 1:00 p.m. in Council Chambers. To assist the Council in rendering its decision and pursuant to the Cable Communications Ordinance (SMC 21.60), the OCC provides this report in which we recommend Council approval of the transfer, subject to specific conditions and commitments that address certain issues set forth below and that protect the City’s interests. Those conditions are incorporated into the proposed consent agreement accompanying the draft transfer legislation provided by the Department of Information of Technology (DoIT) under separate cover.
