- Charter Communications and Cox Communications announced a $34.5 billion merger on Friday, May 16, 2025.
- If approved by the Trump administration, the combined company would surpass Comcast as the largest U.S. cable and broadband provider by subscribers.
- The combined company would be called Cox Communications, while Spectrum would remain the consumer-facing brand.
- The U.S. Justice Department and FCC could scrutinize the merger; analyst Ross Benes considers antitrust concerns legitimate.
