These excerpts taken from the CVC 10-K filed Feb 26, 2009. Program Carriage. The FCC’s program carriage rules govern
disputes between cable operators and programming services over the terms of
carriage. We may not require a
programming service to grant us a financial interest or exclusive carriage
rights as a condition of its carriage on our cable systems, and we may not
discriminate against programming services in the terms and conditions of
carriage on the basis of their affiliation or nonaffiliation with us.
The FCC is considering changes to its program carriage rules, which govern disputes between programmers and distributors over carriage terms, including a proposal to require programmers and distributors to enter into “last best offer” style arbitration when they cannot reach agreement over carriage terms. In addition, several states are also considering or have considered legislation that would mandate such arbitration for carriage disputes. None of the states in which we operate have adopted such legislation.
