Time Warner Cable Wins 10 Beacon Awards

By Katherine McDonald, Community Investment Manager

Last week, I was lucky enough to attend the annual Association of Cable Communicators (ACC) national conference.  This year's FORUM was entitled Innovation and Disruption: Telling Cable's Story in Times of Change, and was held June 3-5 in Silver Springs, Maryland. 

Each year. during the FORUM conference, the ACC honors cable systems and programming networks with the coveted Beacon awards.  These awards recognize excellence in public affairs throughout the industry.  I'm thrilled to share with you that as a company Time Warner Cable was a recipient of 10 awards this year.  Winning entries came from across the footprint, and speak to the hard work of our communications team as a whole.  At Time Warner Cable we care about our communities inside and outside  the company and are helping make them stronger.
