Cablevision (CVC)

Cablevision and Disney Go To Arbitration Over ABC

Cablevision said it would agree to government calls for binding arbitration with ABC Disney in order to immediately return ABC to Cablevision customers. ABC Disney pulled ABC off Cablevision as negotiations continued on a new agreement, removing the channel from more than 3 million New York area homes. The channel was reinstated Sunday night in time for the Oscars.
Cablevision has been able to reach agreement with every other major broadcaster in New York, and has proposed to ABC Disney terms for ABC that are as good or better than the terms in all these agreements.
