Charter Communications Expands Network Presence in Georgia and Alabama
What happened
Charter Communications launched new networks in Alabama and Georgia as part of its sales territory expansion. Separately, Spectrum News, a cable news organization owned by Charter Communications, formally launched Spectrum News NECN to reach audiences across six New England states. The network is making a massive investment in journalism and hiring staff in cities including Needham, Providence, and Manchester, Conn.

Why it matters
The expansion increases the geographic footprint of Spectrum, which operates under Charter Communications. In New England, Spectrum is betting that its regional coverage and commitment to local issues will help differentiate it from local outlets in Boston.
A sales territory expansion is underway, covering the I-10 corridor in Alabama and Louisiana, expanding into Georgia markets, and reaching the Caribbean and South Florida coast.
