NEW YORK: CBS Corporation and Meredith Corporation have inked a long-term deal that sees the renewal of four station affiliation agreements and digital distribution of all seven stations on CBS All Access.<\/p>\n

WGCL in Atlanta, Georgia; KPHO in Phoenix, Arizona; KCTV in Kansas City, Missouri; and WNEM in Flint, Michigan, are all covered in the station affiliation renewal. The four markets serve more than 5.5 million households.<\/p>\n

The deal also sees all seven of Meredith\u2019s CBS affiliates renewing their local live streams on the SVOD service CBS All Access, and allows for the stations to be part of the new Hulu live multi-channel digital television service. The agreement also provides for the stations to be included in future digital distribution deals.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe are a longtime proud partner of Meredith, and this agreement will benefit both companies in the near- and long-term,\u201d said Ray Hopkins, the president of network distribution for the CBS Television Network. \u201cWe are pleased that in extending this deal and committing to certain new and future digital distribution opportunities, Meredith recognizes the value that CBS’s hit programming brings to their business and, most importantly, the viewers in each market.\u201d<\/p>\n

Paul Karpowicz, the president of Meredith’s local media group, commented, \u201cWe are happy to extend our affiliation agreement with CBS in these four key markets and further our relationship with CBS on certain digital opportunities.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
