Media Bureau Denies BeIN Carriage Complaint Against Comcast

BeIN Sports hasn't shown its sports programming properties are similarly situated to Comcast-affiliated NBC Sports Network and Universo, the FCC Media Bureau said in Friday's Daily Digest, dismissing beIN's carriage discrimination complaint (see 1803160069) against Comcast. The bureau said term sheets that beIN and Comcast exchanged before the complaint "show significant uncertainty" about what programming beIN Sports would provide. BeIN outside counsel didn't comment Friday.
