CONVENTION SPEAKERS CALL FOR BROADBAND PARTNERSHIPS
[SOURCE: Multichannel News, AUTHOR: Linda Haugsted]
At the National Cable & Telecommunications Association convention, local
government officials argued that their proximity to end users, and knowledge of
specific local issues, are the key to strategies to drive broadband to the most
rural of users. At a panel of state and local regulators, speakers stated that
public/private partnerships are the key to eliminating the digital divide, even
to the most rural homes. They decried bills, which several speakers said fail
to mandate that new carriers extend new technology to unserved areas, let alone
duplicate the service areas of incumbent video providers.
