According to Variety.com, a rights fee renewal situation is currently taking place between NBCUniversal, which owns USA Network, and Charter Communications, which owns Spectrum, the new company which includes the former Brighthouse and Time Warner Cable networks.

The current deal between NBCU and Charter Communications expires on January 1st, and if a new deal is not reached before the expiration date there is a chance that all NBCU channels would be blacked out on Spectrum, including USA, E!, Bravo, Syfy, MSNBC, CNBC and Oxygen.
