When will CBS Corporation-owned TV stations return to DirecTV, DirecTV NOW or AT&T U-Verse?
It could be sooner than when Nexstar Media Group stations — including many CBS affiliates — return by way of a freshly minted retransmission consent agreement, AT&T head Randall Stephenson hinted during his company’s Q2 earnings call for investors on Wednesday.
That said, Stephenson joked that he’s heard “crickets” from CBS regarding a new retrans deal.
It could be because CBS was busy sending out a communique with “some facts regarding the current situation.”
