News Corp. returned their Fox signal to Cablevision subscribers last night, just in time to watch Game 3 of the World Series.
Both companies have agreed "in principle" on a new deal over retransmission fees, and Cablevision subscribers now have their Fox, Fox Deportes, NatGeo Wild and My 9 channels back.
The signals had been blacked out since October 16th, when negotiations between the companies hit a wall.
News Corp. was asking for $150 million in retransmission fees, more than Cablevision pays for ABC, NBC and CBS combined.
Terms of the new deal were not disclosed.
