Broadcasting & Cable: Cable operators in a pitched battle with broadcasters over retrans fees latched on to a comment attributed to CBS chief Les Moonves at the Code Conference Wednesday. “We’re programmers. The term ‘broadcasting’ doesn’t mean anything anymore,” Moonves said, which was immediately used by the American Television Alliance to hammer the company, which has aggressively sought more retrans compensation as what Moonves considers fair value for TV stations that still provide the most popular programming viewed on cable.
