Give Time Warner Cable a call - We Like Open Government Here

Time Warner Cable is refusing to fund Wisconsin Eye, resulting in the loss of this service to engaged viewers from Madison to Milwaukee through Oshkosh up to Green Bay. Charter Communications has signed a long-term contract to continue providing Wisconsin Eye to viewers in their service area at a very small cost ($0.05 per subscriber VS $0.60 for Fox News and $3.65 for ESPN).

Wisconsin Eye is an amazing contribution to Wisconsin, providing quality, unedited coverage of social and political affairs throughout Wisconsin. This service is supported and utilized by representatives of both major parties, and provides a direct link between government and the public through interviews, mini-documentary work, and coverage of legislative sessions.
