in the same area—
‘‘(I) have been historically carried on the cable system or systems within such community; or
‘‘(II) have been historically carried on the sat- ellite carrier or carriers serving such community;
‘‘(ii) whether the television station provides cov- erage or other local service to such community;
‘‘(iii) whether modifying the local market of the television station would promote consumers’ access to television broadcast station signals that originate in their State of residence;
‘‘(iv) whether any other television station that is eligible to be carried by a satellite carrier in such community in fulfillment of the requirements of this section provides news coverage of issues of concern to such community or provides carriage or coverage of sporting and other events of interest to the commu- nity; and
‘‘(v) evidence of viewing patterns in households that subscribe and do not subscribe to the services offered by multichannel video programming distribu- tors within the areas served by such multichannel video programming distributors in such community.
‘‘(3) CARRIAGE OF SIGNALS.—
‘‘(A) CARRIAGE OBLIGATION.—A market determination under this subsection shall not create additional carriage obligations for a satellite carrier if it is not technically
