AT&T facing blackout talks with Tribune, Media General

Sep. 24, 2015 6:05 PM ETAT&T Inc. (T) StockT, MEG-OLD, TRCOBy: Jason Aycock, SA News Editor6 Comments
  • AT&T (NYSE:T) is getting close to a couple of programming blackouts, with no carriage deals on a couple of deadlines looming at the end of the month.
  • Tribune Media (NYSE:TRCO) and its flagship WGN may go dark on U-verse Oct. 1, the company is warning viewers.
  • Meanwhile, Media General (NYSE:MEG), which operates 71 stations in 48 local markets, is in a dispute with AT&T's DirecTV (NYSE:DTV) that could black out stations Oct. 1. Interestingly, in pointing viewers away from DirecTV, Media General recommends U-verse as one alternative.
  • As always, negotiations are under wraps, but DirecTV homes in on a requested increase, saying that "Media General is threatening to block your station’s signal unless they receive more than double the current fees."
  • After hours: T -0.2%; TRCO -0.8%.
