Where in that agreement does it read the consumer pays the Broadcast fee? It doesn't because the Broadcast fee isn't gov't-mandated to the consumer...you know, the one concern about erroneously paying FNC $2-3.
the "RE-BROADCAST/RETRANSMISSION FEE" is what Cox has to pay the broadcaster, to carry it on the cable system. Since Cox is in business to make money, if they pay 2$ per subscriber, you can believe they will charge more than 2$ per person, so as to make a profit.
Again, what is the FCC directly imposing onto the consumer? I'm not sure why you introduced "FCC broadcast channels regulations." What regulation imposes a fee onto us?
Is Cox "affected by FCC broadcast regulations." Yes. Does the FCC charge Cox? Yes, Does Cox recoup its loss from us. Yes. Does the FCC allow Cox to recoup its loss from us? Yes. I don't dispute this. I just don't understand why you originally wrote it.
I wrote the fee isn't "gov't mandated" onto us. Meaning, it's not regulated and highly arbitrary. Or was your original point even about fees?
the regulation that says COX must pay to carry a channel, be it broadcast or cable. If they pay, YOU pay.
So your point was Cox has to pay FNC, and Cox recoups its $2-3 from us? Great! Thanks for chiming in.
Do you think that any business is going to pay for something and give it away for free? GREAT! Thanks for chiming in!
That would be the business...and not the FCC. Nobody was even discussing business practices or recoupment. You just tossed in FNC isn't affected by broadcast regulations. Really? Nice nugget to know. You probably don't even know why you posted it and had to meander down some irrelevant path.
