Time Warner Cable, Sinclair reach deal
The Associated Press//February 3, 2011//
NEW YORK CITY — Time Warner Cable has reached a multi-year deal to carry the signals of 28 TV stations owned by Sinclair Broadcasting to its cable subscribers in 12 states.
The agreement definitively ends the chance of a signal blackout to some 4 million Time Warner Cable Inc. subscribers.
The two sides had tentatively agreed to a deal two weeks ago.
As part of the final agreement, Time Warner Cable will produce three half-hour local news programs on weekdays for Sinclair Broadcasting Group Inc.’s ABC affiliate, WXLF-TV in Greensboro/Winston-Salem, North Carolina, beginning next January.
A week ago, Sinclair also reached a carriage deal with cable operator Bright House Networks LLC covering about 1 million subscribers. The two-track talks were unusual since Time Warner and Brighthouse generally negotiate such deals together.
