Re: So can comcast restrict access to NBC?

also the NHL, USOC and NFL will pull the games if it goes comcast only,

That is going past NFL ST that is out of market games.

Simple answer: no. FCC rules prevent it.

correct answers yes

comcast now owns nbc there are 2 options for carrying channel nbc on cable that comcast can do they can use must carry rules to require any other cable company to provide it or they can elect to charge a fee say 3 dollars for your local nbc channel

comcast owns the content the fcc give ota broadcast stations great leeway in how they use that content heck in some markets

As they purchased the ok for the NBC purchase anyhow.
