It sounds like we could pay (literally and figuratively), however, as Fox released the most butt-hurt post-negotiations statement I've ever seen:

"In the absence of any meaningful action from the FCC, Cablevision has agreed to pay Fox an unfair price for multiple channels of its programming including many in which our customers have little or no interest. Cablevision conceded because it does not think its customers should any longer be denied the Fox programs they wish to see.

Cablevision thanks its customers for understanding the reasons for the dispute and for staying with us. We are also grateful to the 175 government leaders who raised their voices to urge government intervention and binding arbitration to prevent this blackout. It is clear the retransmission consent system is badly broken and needs to be fixed.

In the end, our customers will pay more than they should for Fox programming, but less than they would have if we had accepted the unprecedented rates News Corp. was demanding when they pulled their channels off Cablevision."

Cablevision sounds like the biggest crybaby ******* on the face of the earth

You would be a crybaby too if you owned the Knicks :lol:

Dolan owns Cablevision as well as MSG?

Even more reason to hate his ass

Just a heads up to those who went over a week without it

and now all the cableblind customers who just got their FOX back can bendover. :lol:

I wonder how much the next cable bill fee increase will be for FOX's rate plus a nice cableblind markup on top of that.
