Which party negotiates a Carriage Agreement?

Explanation:
Carriage agreements govern the terms under which a channel or network is carried on a distributor’s platform. The party negotiating those terms is the distributor that wants to carry the channel—multichannel video programming distributors, such as cable, satellite, or telecom providers. They work with the content owners (networks or studios) to set fees, channel placement, and other conditions for subscriber access. Advertisers are involved in buying ad space; audiences aren’t involved in negotiating distribution terms; studios own the content and may be involved in licensing, but the actual distribution deal is negotiated by the MVPDs on the distributor side.
