    URGENT! PLEASE DELIVER TO: www.cablefax.com, Published by Access Intelligence, LLC, Tel: 301-354-2101 5 Pages Today Thursday — November 30, 2006 Volume 17 / No. 231 ’Tis the Season: EchoStar, Mediacom Fighting Fri Retrans Deadlines There are some things you can count on around this time every year. Turkey leftovers, Santa at the mall… and retrans fights. The latest flare up has Pappas Telecasting threatening to pull all of its broadcast signals from EchoStar on Fri (the same day it has to shutdown all distant network signals) because the 2 have been unable to work out a retrans deal (see story below). Fri is also D-Day for Sinclair and Mediacom’s public retrans spat. On Wed, Mediacom held a confer- ence call to tell its side of the story to city officials and reporters (moments before it began, Sinclair issued a news release headlined, “Sinclair Negotiations With Mediacom Unlikely to Result in an Agreement”). Mediacom hopes the FCC will grant an emergency request to keep the stations on the air. Mediacom chief Rocco Commisso said the MSO upped its offer to Sinclair by 33% over the past week and also agreed to increase its payment by up to 20% if Sinclair inks a deal in the next 2 years exceeding the one it reaches with Mediacom. The MSO also offered Sinclair an a la carte deal in which subs would pay for the broadcast stations if they wanted them. Sinclair rejected the offers, as well as a proposal for bind- ing arbitration, Commisso added. If Mediacom does lose the Sinclair signals at 12:01 Fri, it will impact about 700K subs (50% of its basic subs).

  • Retransmission-Consent Outlook DIFFICULT and Costly
    Retransmission-Consent Outlook DIFFICULT and Costly BY CHRIS CINNAMON, HEIDI SCHMID AND ADRIANA KISSEL n a video world where most operators deliver 150-plus channels, broad- cast stations represent no more than a small slice of channel lineups. Yet the carriage of a few broadcast channels involves a process that for many video providers, especially smaller ones, entails aggravating uncertainty, intense pressure and irrational cost increases. That process? IRetransmission consent. In about 12 months, video providers nationwide will receive certified “election letters” triggering the next round of retransmission-consent negotiations. The out- look for retransmission negotiations in 2011? Difficult and costly. To maximize the likelihood of success—and to minimize pain—preparation is key. Smaller provid- ers should begin preparations now. 32 RURALTELECOM > JULY-AUGUST 2010 ILLUSTRATION BY BRUCE MACPHERSON RTjuly.aug10.FINAL_cc.indd 32 6/18/10 10:07:11 AM RTjuly.aug10.FINAL_cc.indd 33 6/18/10 10:07:12 AM RETRANSMISSION CONSENT WHY NTCA IS CONCERNED About Comcast and NBC Universal By Steve Fravel, NTCA Manager, Video Services Those planning for retransmission-consent negotiations should keep an eye on the Comcast/NBC Universal merger, which could have ramifications for those negotiations. The merger between Comcast, the largest cable provider in the United States, and NBC Universal (NBCU), owner of national television network NBC, creates concern on several levels. Will multichannel video programming distributors (MVPDs) that compete with Comcast have access to the content cur- rently owned by NBC and Comcast at comparable and competitive terms? The fear is that Comcast will withhold access to “must have” content, or increase the licensing fees to unrealistic levels.

  • Station Transactions: 1991 Through September 1998
    ---Station Transactions: 1991 through September 1998 Page 35 BEAR STEARNS Station Transactions -1991 through September 1998 - In this section, we provide quarterly summaries of significant television transactions that have occurred from 1991 through September 1998. The data summarized include: • the date a transaction was announced (rather than closed) • the property or properties acquired/swapped • the affiliation of the acquired/swapped property • the Designated Market Area (DMA) in which the acquired/swapped television station operates • the purchaser • the seller; and • the purchase price, on the date of announcement. Since the majority of these transactions were private, cash flow and transaction multiple estimates were not available for most of the properties and therefore were not included. These data can be used to determine 1) which broadcasters have been active buyers and sellers; 2) the relative prices paid for different properties in the same market; and 3) relative acquisition activity by quarter.
