CBS warns of potential DirecTV and AT&T U-Verse blackouts in 17 Markets
The media company issued a press release asserting that it is negotiating “resolutely and in good faith” with the AT&T units ahead of an 11PM PT deadline on Friday. “CBS has reached timely, fair agreements with hundreds of other cable, satellite, telco and internet providers to carry our industry-leading, fan-favorite programming,” the company said.
“AT&T’s willingness to deprive its customers of valuable content has become routine over the last few weeks and months, and recent negotiations have regularly resulted in carriage disputes, blackouts and popular channels being removed from their service,” CBS added.
