Independent Networks, ACA Speak Out Against Program Tying

A group calling itself the National Association of Independent Networks (NAIN) is teaming with the American Cable Association (ACA) to oppose so-called "program tying" by cable content suppliers. In announcing the formation of the group, which so far comprises WealthTV, HD Net, the Hispanic Information & Telecommunications Network, and The Horror Channel, WealthTV President Charles Herring said the group had a meeting with FCC Chairman Kevin Martin and made the rounds of Capitol Hill to make their case for what they call "fair cable and satellite access."
