Indie Programming Challenges Comments Due June 6

Comments are due June 6, replies July 8, on the FCC's proposed prohibition of most-favored nation and alternative distribution method provisions in carriage agreements between independent programmers and multichannel video programming distributors, said a notice for Tuesday's Federal Register (docket 24-115). The FCC commissioners approved 3-2 an NPRM last month regarding indie programmers that proposed the restriction on carriage agreement terms and sought comment on bundling practices broadly (see 2404190063).
