George knapp has the story. Lisa howfield klas general manager to make a Statement Like that is untrue and frankly offensive. Lisa howfield, general manager of nevadas first and most honored tv station, klas tv, has heard just about enough trash talk from cox cable. She says she would be remiss if says she would be remiss if she does not advise channel 8 views who subscribe to cox that they will lose the klas signal as of midnight friday. Cox customers will no longer see the most watched station in nevada. With its popular daytime dramas. Highest rated newscasts. Syn dicated shows like jeopardy and wheel of fortune.

Cox customers pay 8 dollars per watch it or not. Howfield says cox made a terrible business decision to pay that much. Local broadcasters like channel 8 provide 35 of the viewership for cable systems, but get only 12 of the revenue. Cox earns many times more from channels 8s original content than does channel 8. A Public Relations statement sent to cox customers is blatantly false and misleading, howfield says. The claim that klas is demanding three times what it gets from untrue, she says. Callers to cox have been told their cable bills will jump 20 or 30 dollars if klas wins, which is not only false but ridiculous. Howfield is prohibited by law from making public what the retransmission rates would be but says the typical fair amount negotiated by stations all across the country is around 1 dollar per subscriber.
