MSG Networks Statement Regarding Lawsuit Filed Against The New York
Mets NEW YORK, Oct. 27 /PRNewswire/ -- MSG Networks has filed a
lawsuit in New York State Supreme Court. They commented: "In light
of their recent announcement regarding a new television venture to
carry Mets games beginning in 2006, the Mets are in breach of
several provisions of their 1996 rights agreement with MSG
Networks. By agreeing to form another network more than a year
before the termination of that agreement, the Mets have flagrantly
violated our rights under the agreement. MSG Networks will have no
further comment at this time." DATASOURCE: MSG Networks CONTACT:
