Big 4 countering HBO's Emmy offer
The showdown over the Primetime Emmy Awards is set for a climax today. The Big Four networks are scrambling to find a way to keep the Emmys from bolting to HBO in an unprecedented five-year, $50-million-plus deal

UPDATE: Big Four networks keep Emmy rights in $52 million deal
Oh well, HBO tried.
