Comcast is having similar high profile issues. The only question that I have is: IF cablevision is somehow overwriting the OTA channels for commercials, etc, THEN it makes sense that the OTA provider is compensated for suppressing paid advertizements.
If CV isn't changing the OTA signal, then CV really doesn't owe OTA channels anything.
Does anyone disagree?

That's not what the law says.

Sounds kind of unfair to the OTA channels when it's put that way. Why should the cable companies make a profit on it?
