New York Gov. Kathy Hochul also ordered the state's Department of Public Service to secure refunds for impacted Spectrum customers.
The comments from Hochul followed a similar pronouncement from North Carolina Governor Roy Cooper, who also urged Spectrum and Disney to reach a new agreement this week.
Spectrum is the dominant cable company in New York City and upstate, and in most of North Carolina. It also operates in Los Angeles, Ohio, and in a number of other major markets. “Your customers pay a lot of their hard-earned money to watch your entertainment and most of them don’t care how you divide the profits they help you earn,” Cooper wrote in a letter to the two companies. “But they do care that they are now paying for something they’re not getting and they want you to settle this dispute right away. As an avid sports fan myself, I second that sentiment.”opener just a few days away , the pressure is ratcheting up on the companies to come to terms on a new deal.
