Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The 1992 cable act amendments included provisions for retransmission consent and must-carry rules. Retransmission consent requires cable operators to obtain permission from broadcasters before retransmitting their signals, and must-carry rules require cable operators to carry the signals of local broadcast stations on their systems. These provisions were designed to protect the interests of broadcasters and ensure that local programming was available to viewers.
