Message: [QUOTE="btstimpy, post: 2684624, member: 2673"] The author is blown away because it wasn't ESPN that got the carriage for the ACC Network and SEC Network. It was The Walt Disney Company that got the carriage. Cable providers for the most part won't risk losing all families with kids by losing the Disney Channel and ABC. They'll give carriage to the ACC Network and SEC Network to keep families with kids using their service. What subscriber rates they pay is negotiable, but Disney will get the channels distributed. Now the author for the article of the Original Poster might want to do a follow up with comment on this new development.
