Comcast Reportedly Reaches Deal With Nexstar

Arkansas Business.com is reporting Nexstar and Comcast have reached an agreement to keep KARK on its system. Here's what AB.com has to say about the deal:

"“Comcast doesn’t want to announce anything, but I can tell you that you can consider the deal done,” said Duane Lammers, COO of Nexstar. “They didn’t want to put anything out about it, but we’ll be on Comcast in your market.”

Lammers said part of the deal was not to release terms of the agreement.

The old deal between Nexstar and Comcast was to expire Dec. 31, and officials had said if a deal was not done before then, KARK would be gone at midnight New Year’s Eve." MORE
