Senators: We Want FCC Investigation Of "Ridiculous" Cable And Internet Prices

The legislators are demanding the FCC investigate cable companies for unfair pricing and poor customer service.

Presidential candidate Bernie Sanders and prominent Massachusetts senator Elizabeth Warren are demanding the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) investigate what they're calling the "ridiculous prices" of broadband Internet and cable television in the United States. The two legislators are joined by Minnesota senator Al Franken and Massachusetts senator Ed Markey in their belief that a lack of choice in Internet and cable providers is leading to artificially inflated prices and poor customer service.
