Few companies inspire the degree of loathing Comcast elicits. But if Charter's bid to take over Time Warner Cable is approved we'll have not one but two Comcasts to contend with -- because that's just how enormous and dominant a post-merger Charter would be.
In fact, if this deal goes through Charter and Comcast would offer service to nearly 80 percent of U.S. homes. The merger would kill competition, send prices through the roof, broaden the digital divide -- and harm low-income communities of color the most.
Free Press is working with groups across the country to stop this deal -- and we're urging the FCC to use its power to block it. Last Thursday we visited the agency to deliver anti-merger comments from more than 300,000 Americans.
With a decision on the horizon now's the time to ramp up the pressure and bombard the FCC with phone calls. Need some inspiration? Check out a sampling of the comments from Free Press members; then click here to make your call.
