McCaskill Still Plans December Pay-TV Bill Hearing

​Sen. Claire McCaskill, D-Mo., stills sees a pay-TV industry billing practices hearing in the cards for this year, despite some doubts industry lobbyists have voiced in recent days. “We’re trying to pull it together right now,” McCaskill told us at the Capitol Tuesday. She is attempting to pull together a hearing for December now, she said. McCaskill is chairwoman of the Senate Commerce Consumer Protection Subcommittee, and Commerce Committee Chairman Jay Rockefeller, D-W.Va., said in September that McCaskill should chair such a hearing.
