Communities Lodging 30-Day Notice Complaints Against Charter Grows

Crescent City, California, joined communities lodging complaints against Charter Communications stemming from the ongoing Northwest Broadcasting blackout. An FCC docket 12-1 petition for declaratory ruling posted Thursday included Crescent City alongside Yuma, Arizona; Jackson, Wyoming; and El Centro, California. The latter three filed a similar petition last month alleging the MVPD violated the 30-day advance notice rule with its Feb. 2 blackout of Northwest-owned local stations (see 1803210031). The cable company didn't comment.
