How Good Has Marcus Hogberg Been? Since the calendar switched over to 2025, Alice customers have been unable to watch their favorite New York and New Jersey teams on MSG Networks due to a contract dispute, which includes die-hard New York Islanders fans. On Monday, New York Attorney General Letitia James got involved. In a press release, MSG Networks said the following: "We thank New York Attorney General Letitia James for stepping in on behalf of Optimum subscribers who are not getting what they are paying for. We hope the Attorneys General in New Jersey and Connecticut do the same, as well as other officials and advocates across the tri-state area." MSG Networks remains willing to negotiate with Altice and get the fans back watching their favorite sports teams as soon as possible. More from MSG: MSG Networks calls on Optimum customers to reach out to their Attorneys General, consumer advocates, and other Federal and State officials to demand Altice USA either restore MSG Networks and its coverage of the Knicks, Rangers, Islanders, and Devils or automatically reduce subscribers’ monthly bills by the amount Altice USA saves by no longer carrying this programming. Altice USA is taking advantage of its subscribers, attempting to pad their struggling company’s bottom line by pocketing the more than $10/month they should automatically be reimbursing to its more than 1 million subscribers while MSG Networks remains dark. That’s MORE THAN $120 million in annual fees Altice USA’s Optimum subscribers continue to pay for content they aren’t getting. Enforcement agencies should investigate these anti-consumer practices on behalf of all tri-state area residents.
