Description
If Aaron Rodgers has as much influence on the football field as he apparently had in ending a multibillion-dollar business dispute, the New York Jets will be very happy.
The Walt Disney Co. and Charter Communications announced the resolution of their fight on Monday, restoring ESPN to some 15 million cable television customers hours before Rodgers was to make his debut at quarterback for the Jets in “Monday Night Football.”
The deal guarantees Disney of roughly $2.2 billion in fees from Charter that had been put in jeopardy, while giving the communications company an entry into the streaming world that has encouraged millions of former cable customers to cut the cord.
