Time Warner Cable is open to the idea of a merger with Charter

Comcast’s attempt at a $45 billion acquisition of Time Warner Cable may have failed, but that doesn’t mean TWC isn’t still looking for buyers. In fact, the company’s executives are reportedly open to the idea of a merger with Charter, which would result in the creation of another telecom giant with 15.6 million video subscribers and 16.4 million broadband customers, a bit more palatable than what the Comcast acquisition would have resulted in.
