NEW YORK – The network market keeps rolling along, with premiums in the mid-single-digits on average, though there’s a wider range between networks. The four-net hole is believed to be between $50-75 million. CBS, the best sold, is commanding the biggest premiums, in the high-singles. NBC, also fairly tight, is easiest to deal with – premiums are slight, though Thursday is drawing high-singles and you can only get Wings and L.A. Law. ABC, with the most to sell, is harder to read; while one buyer claimed ‘they’re taking what they can get,’ most others said the net is holding out for its price.
