Episode 14: Charter Was `Blindsided' by Comcast's Offer for TWC

from Deal of the Week · host Bloomberg

Eric Zinterhofer, chairman of Charter Communications Inc. and co-founder of Searchlight Capital Partners, says Charter management was caught by surprise by Comcast Corp.'s behind-the-scenes attempt to usurp its $80 billion deal for Time Warner Cable. ``Blindsided is probably an understatement,'' he says. Zinterhofer reflects on Charter's journey from bankruptcy to potential cable giant and discusses why he left Apollo Management for Searchlight with Bloomberg's Alex Sherman and Kiel Porter. Plus, Bloomberg M&A reporter Ed Hammond chats about the likelihood of a merger between Honeywell International and United Technologies.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
