WASHINGTON—The Supreme Court has agreed to consider whether a black television programmer can use civil rights laws to sue the nation’s largest cable TV provider for refusing to do business with him.
Philadelphia-based Comcast Corp. lost its case before the 9th Circuit Court of Appeals, but the Supreme Court granted the cable provider’s petition for certiorari on June 10, in a case known as Comcast Corp. v. National Association of African American-Owned Media.
