NFL NETWORK WANTS LEGISLATORS TO BACK CABLE FIGHT

NFL Network lobbyists have circulated to legislators for their signature a draft letter to FCC chairman Kevin Martin stating that the agency should impose mandatory arbitration because the cable companies have little incentive to carry popular programming they don't own.
