“Escalating License-Fee Structure” For FNC

Following up on this: “Time Warner Cable’s original 10-year contract” with Fox News Channel “was set to expire in fall 2007, but it reached a multiyear contract extension covering some 13 million subscribers,” Multichannel News reports.

“An executive familiar with the negotiations said the terms are similar to the ones Fox News reached with Cablevision Systems last fall in that there is an escalating license-fee structure. The agreement with Time Warner, this executive said, tops out in the 80-cent range in the latter years of the pact. The Fox News deals with Cablevision and Time Warner Cable average around 75 cents per subscriber, per month over the life of the contracts.”
