(NASDAQ: NXST) on 63 local television stations in 42 markets across the country. Altice also removed Nexstar\u2019s national cable news network, <i>NewsNation<\/i>, from its cable system, with a new Congress taking office and the Presidential inauguration less than two weeks away. Altice has decided to deprive more than two million Americans of critical local news, the NFL Playoffs, live sports and other entertainment programming, as well as essential alerts regarding winter weather and natural disasters.<\/p>\n<p>\nNexstar has tried to engage in good faith negotiations with Altice since October, only to have Altice refuse to do so by repeatedly demanding special terms that are wildly out of step with both our longstanding relationship and the cable television marketplace.<\/p>\n<p>\n\u201cAltice has consistently made unreasonable and unprecedented demands of Nexstar, culminating with their decision to walk away from the negotiations,\u201d said Michael Biard, Nexstar\u2019s President and Chief Operating Officer. \u201cUnfortunately, this seems to be a regular pattern of behavior for Altice, which dropped the MSG Network just last week, depriving millions of New York sports fans the opportunity to see their favorite teams in action. We understand the difficulty of Altice\u2019s financial situation, burdened as it is by billions in debt, but the solution isn\u2019t to force Optimum subscribers to continually pay more while getting less.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><b>About Nexstar Media Group, Inc.<br \/>\n<br \/><\/b>Nexstar Media Group, Inc.
