NY Governor Says He Won't Tolerate Charter Missing Broadband Targets

New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo (D) thumped Charter Communications for allegedly missing broadband expansion deadlines (see 1803190046). “Approval of the Charter Communications acquisition was conditioned on timely performance,” Cuomo said in a Friday statement to New York Public Service Commission Chairman John Rhodes. “Such a breach cannot be tolerated as it places New Yorkers at a competitive disadvantage.” Charter referred us to its earlier statement that it's fully complying with New York requirements and will fight its case.
