Media General filed its third emergency complaint with the Federal Communications Commission against Time Warner Cable. In the third complaint filed Friday (Aug. 21), the TV group alleged that Time Warner breached FCC rules by failing to provide WCBD-TV, the company’s NBC affiliate in Charleston, S.C., as well as providing Time Warner customers with reasonable prior notice of intention to drop carriage of the station.
The FCC requires cable operators to give customers 30 days advance notice of such changes and to provide written notice to TV stations 30 days before dropping signals.
