Cox Takes Stand Against the Cost of Sports Programming

Cox Communications launched a website discussing the rapid rise in the cost of cable sports channels . Cox contends that sports networks, like ESPN and Fox Sports are dramatically raising wholesale prices to Cox -- as much as 35%, which drives up the retail cable price it charges to consumers. Cox said that if the networks refuse to moderate their price increases, it would seek the right to place these channels on an optional service tier, so those consumers who don't want to pay for these expensive channels won't have to.
