Sinclair and Insight Renew Broadcast Agreement

Sinclair Broadcast Group and Insight Communications have extended their agreement to carry four stations' analog and digital signals on Insight's cable network.
The three-year deal will run from Jan. 1, 2009 to Dec. 31, 2011, Hunt Valley-based Sinclair said in a news release. The agreement covers WSTR-TV in Cincinnati, WDKY-TV in Lexington, Ky., and WSYX-TV and WTTE-TV in Columbus, Ohio.
The agreement gives certain video-on-demand rights to Insight, but doesn't include an advertising component, Sinclair said. Other terms of the agreement weren't released.
Sinclair owns or provides services to 58 television stations in 35 markets. Insight, headquartered in New York, is a cable, telephone and Internet company.
