Charter Communications, Inc.
(NASDAQ: CHTR) today released the following statement in response to the
Satellite Television Access and Viewer Rights Act (STAVRA) proposal.

“We commend Chairman Rockefeller and Ranking Member Thune for their STAVRA
proposal, including the ‘Local Choice’ provision.  The current retransmission
consent regime is broken, and the Senators’ legislative proposal offers a
clear and simple fix.  Stopping broadcast blackouts and increasing consumer
control is a logical path forward.  The STAVRA legislation in general, and
‘Local Choice’ in particular, will update the law in a thoughtful way by
promoting competition and keeping consumers from being harmed during business
negotiations.”
