DirecTV and Viacom reach deal, end blackout

DirecTV subscribers no longer have to go searching for Nickelodeon's "Dora the Explorer" or Comedy Central's "The Daily Show."

Ending a nine-day fight over terms of a new contract, Viacom Inc.reached an agreement with satellite broadcaster DirecTV on Friday to return more than a dozen cable channels — including MTV, Nickelodeon, Comedy Central and VH1 — to the pay television provider.

Customers are likely to notice a bump in their monthly bill from DirecTV as a result of the new deal, but executives there said Viacom is getting less than it wanted.
