On September 8, 2026, Connecticut’s top utility regulator warned cable provider Optimum that it may have violated state law by not notifying the agency about job cuts to its in-house cable news channel News 12. Earlier, on August 12, 2026, a new strategic distribution agreement was reached that restored all-news cable television channels owned by two regional MVPDs, including News 12, to Optimum and Charter Communications’ Spectrum systems in the New York Tri-State Area, resolving an 11-month freeze-out. This followed reports on July 16, 2026, that News 12 carried out sweeping layoffs, impacting dozens of journalists and gutting newsrooms across New York. Previously, on June 4, 2026, New York state's Legislature passed legislation, sparked by a "Turn To Tara" investigation into human trafficking, which creates financial penalties for hotels and motels failing to post human trafficking hotline information.
