Rural Broadband Article

This article in the Albany Times Union on September 3 lays out completely my issue with not receiving broadband internet. When the report questioned why Time Warner Cable had not applied for stimulus funds, they simply replied that “We continue to follow the process as an interested party."

Here is the link to the full article, and I've met this reporter before! She wrote about my job!

I recently found the site where entities could apply to receive the stimulus funds - but the due date for that application has passed. I wonder how successfully one can lobby Time Warner Cable. Perhaps it would be more beneficial to look into what other companies or counties have applied for funds and lobby Time Warner competitors to take on providing service to the poor, rural New Yorkers. Hopefully the competition would cause them to become more than just interested parties.
