Cablevision last year told regulators it had discovered that several of its programming networks had booked expenses for the wrong period. The U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (News - Websites) launched an investigation in July which is still ongoing.

But analysts said a completed internal probe should give investors confidence the SEC will follow suit. It also allows Cablevision's auditor KPMG to sign off on its financial statements.

"SEC continues to investigate, but following the sign-off of the third party forensic accountants, we believe investor fear of the SEC will be tremendously diminished," said Richard Greenfield, an analyst at Fulcrum Global Partners, in a research note.

The audited financial results allow Cablevision to spin off its nascent satellite TV venture, VOOM, along with its cable networks, AMC, Independent Film Channel and WE: Women's Entertainment into a new, separately listed company later this year.



This means more channels without the fear of losing VOOM ..

Thanks for the info!

The reason i ask is because i am a big Giants fan and Fox Sports World does not carry the local games

I have SERIOUS doubts that Voom will carry all of the Fox Sports regional networks, but I think it would be very wise of them to carry the 3 digital channels. Fox Sports Atlantic, Fox Sports Pacific, and one other one.
