Spectrum Expands Across 45 States | Oklahoma City News

Charter just pulled off a $55 billion mega-deal to buy Cox and Liberty Broadband, expanding Spectrum across 45 states and reshaping the broadband landscape. Though announced last year, the merger officially closed Thursday — sparking debate over competition, but an economic professor sees it as necessary for industry evolution amid tech shifts. Charter’s already proven its appetite for consolidation, having acquired Time Warner Cable in 2016. Cox customers will soon see their brand morph into Spectrum under one roof, with free mobile service offers and full product rollout coming next month. Customer service will unify under Spectrum within a year, while headquarters stay in Connecticut and operations remain anchored in Atlanta — led by CEO Chris Winfrey.
