News Corp. has struck a deal to keep its cable and broadcast channels on satellite broadcaster DirecTV.
The two sides had been feuding over a new contract, and DirecTV, which has more than 19 million subscribers, was set to drop more than two dozen News Corp.-owned Fox cable networks Tuesday.
Channels that are part of the agreement include the popular FX network and regional sports outlets. The accord covers Fox’s cable channels as well as local television stations that carry Fox Broadcasting programming.
