NFL Contract Boosts Fox TV Affiliations: Fox Broadcasting Co., which won a $1.56-billion contract to broadcast National Football League games earlier this year, said it has added seven new full-time affiliates and 24 secondary affiliates to its roster of Fox stations. The additional affiliates should boost the network’s coverage from 94% to 98% of U.S. TV homes, Fox said. Both CBS and ABC have threatened reprisals against their affiliates that agree to part-time Fox affiliation for the NFL games.
