March 25, 2010 · 0 comments

DirecTV has reached an agreement with the Comcast-owned sports channel Versus last week. DirecTV has withdrawn Versus channel from its programming line up last August due to carriage dispute.

Versus channels standard and high-definition programming were included on DirecTV line up on March 15, 2010 after this agreement was reached.

Derek Chang, executive vice president, Content Strategy and Development, DIRECTV, said “We are pleased that both sides were able to work out a satisfactory deal to bring this programming back to our customers.”

Jamie Davis, president of VERSUS, said “We’re excited that we were able to come to a fair agreement that puts VERSUS back in millions of homes with DIRECTV in time for our busy spring programming schedule. We look forward to super–serving these fans with NHL regular–season and playoff coverage, our first live UFC event and much more.”
