Spectrum Swallows Cox in Mega Merger | Baton Rouge News

Published 6 days, 18 hours ago
Description

Charter just pulled off a telecom earthquake, swallowing Cox and Liberty Broadband to create the nation’s largest broadband player — now stretching Spectrum across 45 states. Cox Enterprises walks away with a 26% stake, billions in cash and partnership units, while Charter takes on $12 billion in debt. For Cox customers, it means free mobile lines for a year, full Spectrum pricing and service by mid-September, plus U.S.-based support, same-day techs, and a $20 minimum wage rollout. Though the parent company will eventually become Cox Communications, it’ll keep operating under the Spectrum brand — all while keeping HQ in Stamford and Atlanta still buzzing.
