C-SPAN, Discovery challenge to FCC’s dual must-carry Rules
Where: U.S. Court of Appeals for the D.C. Circuit

Six national programmers, including C-SPAN and Discovery Communications, want to overturn rules that require cable operators to transmit “must-carry” local TV stations in both analog and digital formats for a period of three years, beginning in February 2009.

Comcast and Cablevision Systems want to reverse the FCC’s decision to extend federal program access rules for five years, through 2012. The rules require cable operators to sell their satellite-delivered networks to rival pay TV providers.

Comcast is just a few weeks away from filing a suit intended to overturn the FCC’s order last December that banned a cable operator from serving more than 30% of pay-TV subscribers nationally, effectively stopping Comcast from making a big cable acquisition.
