As the dispute between Fox and Cablevision continued through a fourth day, FCC Chairman Julius Genachowski said he contacted CEOs of both companies to try to bridge the impasse. Genachowski also said in a statement he was “deeply troubled that Cablevision and Fox are spending more time attacking each other through ads and lobbyists than sitting down at the negotiating table. The time for petty gamesmanship is over.”
Both parties did talk briefly over the phone on Tuesday and agreed to talk again on Wednesday. Furthermore, a new statement from Charles Schueler, EVP/Communications at Cablevision was released:
- “Both parties have a position, but only Cablevision has joined with more than 50 government leaders with a solution, binding arbitration under the direction of a neutral third party. By now it should be clear even to News Corp. that binding arbitration is the fastest and fairest way to return Fox programming to our customers.”
Fox also released a new statement to the press which has been copied in part below (bold and underline Fox emphasis):
- “For several months, Fox has worked to reach an agreement with Cablevision based on the same fair terms already accepted by other providers in the market. Cablevision has refused to reach a deal.
- “Now that the deadline has passed and its subscribers are paying the price for Cablevision’s failure, the cable company is demanding government intervention. Specifically, they are calling for the FCC and politicians to step in and replace business-to-business negotiations with an arbitration process, while at the same time forcing Fox to allow Cablevision to carry our channels free-of-charge (a so-called ‘standstill’).
- “Not only is this demand totally without merit, it is also the height of hypocrisy since just three weeks ago the Cablevision family submitted a filing with the FCC arguing against using arbitration or stand stills to resolve disputes!”
