LOS ANGELES — Millions of cable TV subscribers might see more than a dozen channels from MTV to Comedy Central go dark at a minute past midnight Wednesday if a dispute over carriage fees between Viacom Inc. and Time Warner Cable Inc. spills into the new year.
Time Warner, the nation's second-largest cable operator, proposed an increase in what it pays for Viacom's channels, but the offer was rejected as "a pittance," said Viacom spokeswoman Kelly McAndrew.
