California Hawaii NAACP State Conference Supports Charter/TWC/BHN

Charter Communications' planned buy of Bright House Networks and Time Warner Cable would help the newly formed New Charter in promoting diversity, said an ex parte filing from the California Hawaii State Conference of the NAACP in FCC docket 15-149. New Charter would be able to emphasize progressive inclusion practices and ensure access to independently owned and minority-focused programming, the letter said. The deals would also promote better relations within many minority groups, it said.
