Comcast Seeks to Dismiss Boston NBC Affiliate Lawsuit

Boston Business Journal: Comcast wants a federal court to throw out WHDH’s lawsuit against the cable giant over its refusal to extend the station’s NBC affiliation, arguing that the Boston station signed a contract that expires in January and must live by its terms. WHDH launched the lawsuit in March after NBCUniversal, which is owned by Comcast, announced it was yanking its affiliation and starting its own station.
