Heads Up Suddenlink folks: LIN TV Carriage

[LER]

Saw a slide on KXAN (NBC/Austin) about negotiations with Suddenlink.

KXAN.com - News, Weather, Sports - Austin, TX | SuddenLink Negotiation Status (http://www.kxan.com/global/Story.asp?s=7547931)

Apparently Suddenlink and Lin haven't got a contract after 12/31/2007.

Just an FYI.

I wonder what LIN considers "fair market value"? To me it looks like just about every other station owner can come to agreement with cable and sat companies but LIN can't for their ATSC signals. If LIN starts shutting off their NTSC signal to cable and sat I hope the state takes the same interest in that issue as they have with the NFL network and cable issue.
