NEW YORK—Fox television stations remained pulled from subscribers of Cablevision Systems Corp. after the two companies failed to agree on subscription fees and as the dispute grows increasingly contentious. 
  
 The two companies spoke throughout the day Saturday and agreed to meet again Sunday, according to spokesmen from both companies. There was no material progress Saturday, a Fox spokesman said. Fox is owned by News Corp., which also owns Dow Jones & Co., publisher of this newswire and The Wall Street Journal. 
  
 The blackout leaves more than 3 million New York-area households without their local Fox-owned broadcast stations, Fox Business News, Nat Geo Wild and Fox Deportes cable channels, and it threatens the ability of Cablevision subscribers to watch post-season baseball games, National Football League games and popular prime-time shows like "Glee" and "House." 
  
 Fox is demanding increases in payments from Cablevision in return for its programming, and the cable giant is balking. The negotiations follow a pattern found throughout the TV industry, with networks seeking a larger share of revenue generated by monthly pay-TV bills paid by consumers, while cable and satellite companies struggle to control rising programming costs. 
  
 The ire between News Corp. and Cablevision intensified over the past few days. Both sides have accused the other of not negotiating in good faith. 
  
 Cablevision, in a scrolling announcement on the affected Fox-owned stations, said the decision to pull programming was made by News Corp. For its part, News Corp. said Cablevision dropped Fox. 
  
 News Corp., meanwhile, said Cablevision declared an impasse at 8 p.m. ET Friday; a Cablevision spokesman said the two sides were negotiating until shortly before midnight. Their contract ended at midnight Friday into Saturday. 
  
 Cablevision has said it already pays News Corp. more than $70 million a year for its channels, and that the company is demanding more than $150 million a year for the same programming. Fox has declined to comment on those figures. 
  
 On Saturday, Cablevision accused News Corp. of blocking its subscribers from watching Fox shows online at hulu.com and fox.com. By early evening in New York, though, Cablevision subscribers were able to watch Fox shows on hulu.com. 
  
 Meanwhile, the Federal Communications Commission on Friday offered to get involved, while several lawmakers--including Rep. Peter King (R, N.Y.)--advocated binding arbitration. Cablevision agreed to arbitration, but News Corp. resisted the offer. 
  
 In past programming disputes, distributors have agreed to arbitration proposals in part because it would weaken programmers' negotiating position by removing the potential for a blackout. 
  
 The programming blackout is likely to provoke outcry from consumers, raising the potential of a public backlash against both companies that could be costly. Cablevision risks losing subscribers, while Fox's ratings and ad revenue could suffer. 
  
 The first significant program affected by the blackout was game one Saturday of the National League Championship Series. The next big event that would be affected is the New York Giants' football game at 1 p.m. ET Sunday. 
  
 Both Fox and Cablevision have reputations for being hard-nosed negotiators that will take on the risks of a programming blackout in order to further their interests. 
  
 Currently, cable networks--including 19 regional sports channels--owned by Fox are blacked out on Dish Network Corp.'s satellite system, and the two companies face a more important contract renewal for Fox's broadcast stations at the end of this month. 
  
 For its part, Cablevision temporarily lost access earlier this year to programming in similar negotiations with the Walt Disney Co.'s ABC network, as well as the Food Network and HGTV channels, which are owned by Scripps Networks Interactive Inc. 
  
 News Corp. and Cablevision have pinned blame for the stand-off on each other in a blitz of public relations. Cablevision is running a scrolling announcement on the Fox stations, explaining its position and blaming News Corp. for the blackout. 
  
 Fox, meanwhile, took out advertisements in local newspapers and launched a website, KeepFoxOn.com, advising Cablevision subscribers to switch to pay-TV providers in order to keep watching Fox programming. The company said Cablevision paid itself and charged other pay-TV companies more for its own channels, MSG and MSG Plus, than all 12 of the Fox Channels they carry, even though the Fox channels enjoy higher ratings.

 Executives at Cablevision and News Corporation are scheduled to meet at noon Saturday to resume negotiations in a spat that has left Cablevision subscribers without access to Fox network programming. 
  
 The two media giants have been fighting over retransmission consent, which gives cable companies like Cablevision the right to carry local stations like WNYW, Channel 5 in New York. WNYW is owned by News Corporation. The Federal Communications Commission urged the companies to keep negotiating. 
  
 When an existing contract between the two companies expired at the end of the day on Friday, Fox stations disappeared from Cablevision homes. Instead of a scheduled episode of “The Simpsons,” WNYW displayed nothing but a black screen. The same was the case on WWOR, Channel 9, also owned by News Corp., which was supposed to be showing an episode of “Tyler Perry’s House of Payne.” 
  
 News Corp. quickly issued a release headlined, “Cablevision Drops Fox.” At the same time, Cablevision began posting a message on the screen that accused News Corp. of “pulling Fox 5 and My 9 off air” and declared it was News Corp.’s decision, “not ours.” 
  
 Cablevision’s voice-over announcer ran simultaneously on both stations and read a long list of grievances against News Corp., accusing the company of “extortion,” “corporate greed” and “outrageous demands” as well as “holding their own viewers hostage.” 
  
 For its part News Corp. accused Cablevision of seeking “preferential treatment” that will force viewers to lose access to programs like Saturday night’s first game in the National League Championship Series and Sunday afternoon’s Giants N.F.L. game. 
  
 News Corp. also said Cablevision had declared an impasse at 8 p.m., and refused to negotiate further. 
  
 The dispute affects about three million subscribers of Cablevision in the New York metropolitan area. The two companies have had months to negotiate, but they haven’t been able to agree on a price for the retransmission right. 
  
 Retransmission disputes are on the rise because broadcasters are determined to earn more money from distributors. ABC programming was taken off of Cablevision’s systems for nearly a full day in March due to a similar fee fight. 
  
 Richard Greenfield, a media analyst for the investment firm BTIG, said most retransmission fights end within a day or two. 
  
 “No one’s dropping Cablevision because they woke up on a Saturday morning without Fox’s local news,” he said Saturday morning. “The question becomes, how long is it going to last and who’s going to blink first?” 
  
 Mr. Greenfield said he doubted that Fox would budge. “Fox wants their dollars. They see the importance of their programming,” he said. 
  
 The important deadline, he said, is Sunday at 1 p.m., the kick-off of the Giants game. 
  
 In a statement nine minutes after midnight on Saturday, the F.C.C. chairman Julius Genachowski said he was disappointed in both companies. 
  
 “Each year, thousands of agreements between broadcasters and pay-TV providers are reached without interruption of customer viewing,” he said. “I remain hopeful that these two companies will do what is in the best interest of consumers and find a way quickly to resolve their differences.” 
  
 Besides the public pressure, there is little else the F.C.C. can do. 
  
 On Friday, the government proposed that the two companies enter into mediation. Cablevision said it had accepted the F.C.C. offer but Fox said it had declined. 
  
 The F.C.C. had asked the two companies to extend negotiations into early next week, to get past the weekend’s sporting match-ups, according to three people with knowledge of the government’s proposal, who requested anonymity because they were not authorized by their employers to comment. Representatives of both News Corporation and Cablevision were invited to Washington for mediation. 
  
 Cablevision agreed to the F.C.C. proposal because it has been calling for binding arbitration, apparently placing a bet that it would help their negotiating position. Fox has rejected the calls for arbitration. 
  
 “Cablevision needs to stop hiding behind a call for binding arbitration and negotiate in good faith,” Fox said in a statement Friday, adding that it shares “the concern for protecting viewers’ access to programming.” 
  
 The Fox statement continued, “Direct business-to-business negotiation is the only way to resolve this issue, while also preserving the long-term stability of the broadcast system. We will continue to negotiate and are committed to putting all our resources towards reaching a fair resolution.” 
  
 The prospect that football and baseball games would be interrupted has provoked comments from dozens of lawmakers urging the two companies to leave viewers out of the corporate squabble. 
  
 Senator Frank R. Lautenberg, Democrat of New Jersey, said Fox should immediately reconsider the decision to decline mediation. It is “inexcusable that Fox would rather hold consumers hostage than engage in further negotiations,” he said in a statement. 
  
 Representative Steve Israel of Long Island said in a statement Friday evening, “I spoke to officials today at the F.C.C. and they confirmed they have offered to mediate arbitration and pledged to keep the heat on both parties to come to the table without disrupting service.” 
  
 He added, “I’m disappointed that both parties haven’t agreed to hold Giants fans harmless while negotiations continue.” 
  
 Greg Aiello, spokesman for the National Football League, said the league was aware of the dispute and is “monitoring it closely.” 
  
 But he said it was not an issue the N.F.L. itself would get involved in. 
  
 “We’re innocent bystanders,” Mr. Aiello said. “We hope they work it out.” ||||| FILE - Cablevision Headquarters in Bethpage, N.Y.,is seen in a file photo from Aug. 8, 2005.

 Sports fans in the New York and Philadelphia areas may still have a shot at seeing both of Saturday's baseball playoff games. 
  
 Representatives of News Corp.'s Fox and Cablevision say they're returning to the negotiating table at noon Saturday to try to resolve the programming fee dispute that led Fox to pull its channels from some 3 million Cablevision subscribers in New York and Philadelphia. 
  
 Both sides have less than eight hours to come to an agreement before subscribers miss Game 1 of Major League Baseball's National League Championship Series, when the Phillies take the field against the San Francisco Giants. 
  
 The blackout affects Fox 5 and My9 in New York and Fox29 in Philadelphia. Subscribers also lose access to cable channels Fox Business Network, NatGeo Wild and Fox Deportes.

Output:
Hey, no rush or anything, but suits from Cablevision and News Corp's Fox have about 7 hours to hash out a deal or baseball fans in Philly aren't going to be able to watch a playoff game tonight, reports AP. Fox pulled its channels from Cablevision when a contract expired at midnight amid an increasingly nasty fight over subscription fees, reports the Wall Street Journal. (Short version: Fox wants Cablevision to pay more to carry its channels.) The move also affects New York City, meaning that local residents won't be able to watch the Giants game if no resolution is reached by tomorrow. For non-sports fans, it means no Glee, House or Simpsons. Not surprisingly, each side is blaming the other, notes the New York Times: A News Corp release reads "Cablevision Drops Fox," while Cablevision says the decision to go dark was News Corp's, "not ours."
