No thanks, said Time Warner Inc. to an $80 billion takeover offer from Rupert Murdoch‘s 21st Century Fox. The media company said in a statement Wednesday that accepting the proposal was not in the best interests of Time Warner or its stockholders, since the company’s strategic plan will create more value "and is superior to any proposal that 21st Century Fox is in a position to offer." Time Warner also cited "considerable strategic, operational and regulatory risks." 21st Century Fox confirmed it made the bid, adding that the companies aren’t in discussions.
 
 

IN THE NEWS

 
Saying it was "embarrassed," Comcast apologized to Ryan Block and his wife, Veronica Belmont, after a recording of Block’s frustrating attempt to cancel their cable service went viral. When the cable provider’s customer retention specialist refused to take no for answer ("I’m really ashamed to see you go to something that can’t give you what we can"), tech journalist Block posted eight minutes of the call online. "The way in which our representative communicated with them is unacceptable and not consistent with how we train our customer service representatives," said a statement from the company. "We are investigating this situation and will take quick action."
 
NBC‘s Saturday Night Live didn’t renew the contracts of featured players Noel Wells and John Milhiser, who joined the late night sketch show last season. Brooks Wheelan tweeted his exit on Monday: FIRED FROM NEW YORK, IT’s SATURDAY NIGHT!
 
Lifetime launched a national sweepstakes offering the chance to win $10,000 to people born on July 20 – the date the net’s conspiracy thriller, The Lottery, premieres at 10p. Details can be found here; winner announced in the fall.
 
Another Lifetime ten grand giveaway: the net is the 15th partner to hop aboard the 2014 New York Television Festival, with its third annual Lifetime Unscripted Development Pipeline. Winner is awarded $10,000 and the chance to participate in the production of a pilot based on their concept. For more info go here.

PRODUCTION & DEVELOPMENT

 
FilmLA reported Wednesday that on-location television production in LA County surged 33.7 percent, to 10,385 production days in 2Q14 versus 2Q13. The study attributed the jump to work on early summer shows, as well as California’s tax incentive program. The state has been in fierce competition with other states offering tax credit programs. 

Rory Albanese is returning to Comedy Central as exec producer for late night show The Minority Report with Larry Wilmore, debuting in January 2015, reports Deadline. Albanese had been exec producer/showrunner for The Daily Show with Jon Stewart until he left last fall for a development deal with Warner Bros. Television.

A trial run for The Daily Helpline fared worse, scoring a .1/0 two day average, down 67 percent from its lead-in and off 80 percent from its year-ago time period average.

DISTRIBUTION & CARRIAGE

History is bringing Pawn Stars, American Pickers and Mountain Men to Belarus. The A+E Networks channel launched to nearly one million homes via Beltelecom on July 15.

BRANDS & ADVERTISING

According to the latest YouGov BrandIndex, Amazon.com remains the number one best-perceived brand among customers, despite its Hachette hiccup. YouTube made the top ten again, landing at number three, while Netflix made its top ten debut at number 4. Here are the mid-year rankings:

Adult Swim is teaming with its advertising partners for on-air, on-site and online fan experiences at Comic-Con. Among the efforts are a campaign with State Farm featuring Super Steve Frost, a superhero invented for the occasion; free rides in Adult Swim and Lexus-branded CT Hybrid vehicles and a site from Intel showing full-length panels at the event. Each video will feature Intel pre-roll messaging and will be housed in a branded environment presented by Intel. "Advertisers recognize Adult Swim’s relationship with young adults and look to us to better align themselves with marquee events like Comic-Con," said Joe Hogan, EVP, young adult ad sales for Turner Broadcasting.

MADE TO MEASURE

Newsmax TV, soft-launched on June 16 to nearly 35 million homes, struck an agreement with Rentrak to support its marketing initiative to advertisers, agencies and service providers. "It is essential that we are able to provide a number of credible and key metrics that illustrate how our programming resonates with our viewers on all platforms," said Newsmax Media CEO Christopher Ruddy.

Nielsen reports its expanded Online Campaign Ratings have been met with "significant client adoption," including Adap.tv, BrightRoll, Torrential and YuMe, among others. "With this adoption, the enhanced Nielsen Online Campaign Ratings stands to transform the mobile advertising industry," said president, US Media Lynda Clarizio.
