Viacom and the National Cable Television Cooperative reached a deal to renew carriage of Viacom’s networks by NCTC’s member companies. The deal was reached late Tuesday after some NCTC member distributors stopped carrying Viacom channels in their lineup (CD April 2 p16). Viacom and NCTC couldn’t reach an agreement by the time the previous deal expired March 31. Terms of the agreement aren’t being disclosed, the companies said in a news release.
