And this has nothing to do with the cable company.
That's industry apologist BS. The content producers have nothing without the distributors (Cable, Sat, etc.) but since there is no downside to just paying the ransom and forcing it onto consumers they're both giving each other the reach-around in private while they whine about each other in public.
If Cable/Sat really cared about this they would have told Disney to go pound sand years ago. Instead they are precisely half of the problem.
