Madison Square Garden Entertainment Corp. said Friday that its
MSG Network sports programming will no longer be available via
Comcast Corp.'s Xfinity cable-TV service to some cable subscribers
primarily in New Jersey and Connecticut amid a negotiating impasse
between the companies.
The MSG Network airs National Basketball Association and
National Hockey League games played by teams based in New York and
New Jersey along with other sports programming. MSG Entertainment
said Comcast rejected negotiation proposals that were consistent
with MSG's deals with other major cable providers.
Representatives for Comcast didn't immediately respond to a
request for comment.
