I don’t think nbc is breaking a contract. they are smart enough to fallow there contract to the letter
fallow : definition:
plowed and harrowed but left unsown for a period in order to restore its fertility as part of a crop rotation or to avoid surplus production.
It sure looks like they FALLOWED their contract, and it is gonna bite them in he ass. The contract was to put it on, not FALLOW it. NBC is screwed.
