The ongoing feud of 2009 has now spilled over into the new year of 2010. News Corp.’s Fox television stations are still broadcasting Time Warner systems as both companies agreed to extend the contract talks into January. While they say that the negotiations still remain cordial, the talks were only extended for three hours past midnight. There’s a lot at stake here. Time Warner customers, especially in southern California, could be without major bowl games this week like the Sugar and Cotton Bowls as well as the NFL games. All stations and companies make the most money off advertising and I would hate to be a company that bought a million dollar spot in the Sugar Bowl.
