NAB Lobbies Starks Office on Reclassifying MVPDs

The FCC should refresh the record on reclassifying streaming services as MVPDs “in light of many significant developments in the market for vMVPD services and other video marketplace developments,” said NAB in a call Monday with an aide to Commissioner Geoffrey Starks, according to an ex parte filing in docket 14-261. House Commerce Chair Cathy McMorris Rogers, R-Wash., and Communications Subcommittee Chair Bob Latta, R-Ohio, wrote a letter Monday to Chairwoman Jessica Rosenworcel arguing the matter is outside FCC authority and should be left to Congress (see 2308090065).
