Spectrum Networks is the local programming division of Charter, consisting of more than 30 dedicated hyperlocal 24/7 news and sports networks and two regional sports networks. Our news networks are dedicated to producing original, unbiased, and high-quality local content that engages viewers about the issues and events taking place in their neighborhoods and communities.
We use innovative journalistic approaches, informed by comprehensive qualitative and quantitative research methods, to provide viewers with the information and tools they need to navigate their day and become more active participants in their communities.
Longtime anchors Cheryl Wills and Lewis Dodley look back at three decades of serving New Yorkers breaking news, political context, weather and deeper insights surrounding the events that impact their daily lives.
Our exclusive local programming attracts highly engaged viewers and keeps them tuning in with innovative and informative hyperlocal content. We differentiate ourselves from our competitors by bolstering our ties within the communities we serve. Many of our journalists live in the vicinity of the neighborhoods they report on so that our coverage reflects and is informed by the issues and community concerns that matter most to our viewers day-to-day. Coverage includes local news, weather, traffic, education, politics, community events, sports, housing, public safety and more. Charter customers can rely on us 24/7 for the most accurate news they need.
Our presence in our communities goes beyond our coverage. The Spectrum Networks team is dedicated to being a meaningful part of the communities we serve. In 2019, Spectrum Networks talent participated in events ranging from food festivals to career days at local elementary schools. Whether it’s a tree-lighting in December or Fiesta in San Antonio in April, we’re in our communities no matter the season.
Spectrum SportsNet, television home of the Los Angeles Lakers, LA Galaxy and Los Angeles Sparks, and SportsNet LA, the Los Angeles Dodgers television network, provide non-stop coverage - from game day to behind-the-scenes action - so fans can follow their favorite LA teams 24/7. Though team loyalties run deep, Spectrum Networks helps fans come together for sports coverage that won’t quit. In addition to providing coverage of live games, SportsNet and SportsNet LA ’s comprehensive programming includes award-winning studio coverage and original shows.
Spectrum Networks has a vision to bring its trusted local journalism to all Spectrum residential customers via an innovative, mobile-first news app created for savvy news consumers who want a personalized and highly dynamic experience.
