Verizon and the Federal Govt
Business Week just released an article saying that Verizon and the other telcos are spending huge amounts of money lobbying at the federal level to eliminate their responsibility to negotiate with individual towns on cable franchises. Red Bank can not rely on the federal government to address the issues I've brought up in this blog. Verizon is going to use its deep pockets to ensure no federal laws are passed that make them commit to doing what's good for small towns.
