EW Scripps Co. (SSP) shares were up almost 7% Monday after the company said it signed multi-year renewal agreements for all 11 of its television stations carrying content from Comcast's (CMCSA) NBC broadcast network.
Financial terms and other details of the affiliate agreements were not disclosed.
The new deal covers two Scripps stations each in Montana and Wisconsin as well as single stations in California, Colorado, Florida, Kentucky, Missouri, Oklahoma and Texas. The company said it also signed a similar deal recently to carry Paramount's (PARA) CBS network on several of its stations.
