Comcast responded to Bloomberg's program carriage complaint over so-called "news neighborhooding," saying Bloomberg is trying to "extract" preferential channel placement treatment and the Federal Communications Commission should deny the complaint. Bloomberg filed an official complaint last month asking the FCC to make Comcast move Bloomberg TV into "existing news neighborhoods" as defined by Bloomberg, within 60 days in the top 35 DMA's in the country. Comcast was originally supposed to respond by July 13, but asked for and got the extra time.
