Sinclair reached a two-year retransmission consent agreement for its WNWO-TV Toledo, with Buckeye Cablevision. The station wasn’t available on Buckeye’s lineup after the companies failed to reach an agreement last year, which prompted Buckeye to file a complaint with the FCC against Sinclair (CD Feb 21 p20). Under the agreement, Buckeye will pay a signing bonus to WNWO, “which is in an amount that more than covers the legal fees incurred as a result of a complaint filed by Buckeye” at the FCC, Sinclair said Tuesday in a news release (http://bit.ly/1ntm9yJ). The complaint will be withdrawn in connection with the new agreement, it said.
