“All that’s important here is that broadcasters and cable content companies and everyone who’s involved with the content producing business gets paid appropriately for their content,” Moonves said. “And that somebody can’t come and take that content, charge for it, and not pay us back for that content. So it’s a very good day for our future.” Watch:
